Christmas Stuff

I'm finally blogging, Grandma!! :) Sorry it's been awhile. We moved and life has been crazy since then but we're getting settled now so hopefully I'll find time to blog more often. I just thought I'd post some pictures of some of the Christmas festivities we've been doing. These first two pictures are at Andrew's class Christmas party. They decorated gingerbread houses and had so much fun doing it!


These next two are from Andrew's Christmas program and open house last Thursday. Andrew's class sang two songs...I'll try and post some video if I can figure out how. It was a fun night.


This next one is from the town Christmas parade. Jay and I were float judges and it was hard! There were so many good ones. We also have been to the community Christmas cantata, which was great.

This last one I took after church this morning.

We're leaving Wednesday to have Christmas with Jay's family so I'm sure I'll have more pictures to post later. Hope you all have a great time celebrating with your families. Among the crazy schedules may we not forget the greatest gift any of us could ever receive: Jesus Christ. This is a quote from a conversation between Lucy and Aslan (the character that represents Christ) in C.S. Lewis' "Narnia" that Jay shared in his sermon this morning that I really loved:

"Welcome, child," he said.
"Aslan," Lucy said. "You're bigger."
"That is because you are older, little one," answered he.
"Not because you are?"
"I am not. But every year you grow, you will find me bigger."

I pray that we are constantly growing to know this huge, huge Savior of ours.

Josh and I were float judges in the Comanche parade after only living here a few months, too! We have Laura Weaver to thank for that one :) Gotta love small town parades, huh!
