Merry Christmas!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS from our family to yours!

Praise God for Christmas.
Praise Him for the Incarnation
for Word made flesh.
I will not sing
of shepherds watching flocks
on frosty night
or angel choristers.
I will not sing
of stable bare in Bethlehem
or lowing oxen
wise men
trailing distant star
with gold and frankincense and myrrh.
Tonight I will sing
praise to the Father
who stood on heaven’s threshold
and said farewell to His Son
as He stepped across the stars
to Bethlehem
and Jerusalem.
And I will sing
praise to the infinite eternal Son
who became most finite
a Baby
who would one day be executed
for my crimes.
Praise Him in the heavens.
Praise Him in the stable.
Praise Him in my heart.

~Joseph Bayly~


Christmas Eve!!

December 24, 2009

Lack of posting yesterday was due to craziness in our household…getting our car worked on because our gas tank was leaking and cleaning up vomit to name a few of the happenings!  So I will be posting twice today!

MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!  :)


Three days ’til Christmas

Callaway Gardens’ Fantasy in Lights…one of our holiday traditions.

Luke always worries that we won’t fit under the parts we drive through.


Christmas Countdown

December 21, 2009

I’m so behind in blogging and I don’t have a lot of free time this week, so I thought I would treat you to a few pictures every day this week of what we’ve been up to around here.  Enjoy and Merry Christmas!


Long time, no blog.

December 2, 2009

Forgive me for my lack of blogging.  I just haven’t had the time or the motivation. 

So here’s what we’ve been up to since Halloween…

Trip to Atlanta with the Adams to see Ray Lamontagne.  It was awesome.

Trip over to Auburn for Homecoming with my parents.  We also met up with my brother, sis-in-law, and my two precious nieces.  Luke got to go to his first game!

Playing in lots of leaves thanks to the gigantic pecan trees in our front yard.

Trip to Mobile right before Thanksgiving.  Here we are roasting marshmallows with cousin Carson on Nana’s back patio.  We also made fun Turkey cookies.

Thanksgiving day was fun with the Adams.  The kids played outside with the dads while dinner was being prepared.

Now…on to Christmas!!!

On a side note,  Luke is having some surgery tomorrow.  He is getting his second set of tubes and he is also getting his adenoids removed.  We’re hoping this makes a huge difference in all the sickness we seem to be constantly dealing with.  Prayers for all of us tomorrow would be appreciated! 

Merry Christmas!!
