Christmas is Coming

I just love Christmas. I can honestly say it is my favorite holiday. We have wonderful family traditions. Every year we go into the city and see the Christmas lights. We will eat dinner at the Walnut Room at Macy's around the Christmas tree. We will eat Garrets popcorn and walk State Street and look at the windows. There is a sweet little German Village in Daily Center with the Nativity, apple strudel, and the huge Christmas tree. We have to go see the light in Aurora and my kids have to shop for each other. This truly is the most wonderful time of the year. I want to make sure that my children know that Christ was born on Christmas and it's His birthday. Even though we have a lot of wonderful Christmas traditions I never want to forget the TRUE meaning of Christmas. Have a very Merry Christmas.

I love these traditions and I love the cookies that you gave me too. I'm eating them right now!

I hope you enjoy your days very much. Christmas is so much better now that we celebrate Jesus rather than the worldly stuff we did before we got saved!

Merry Christmas from very sunny Florida. It's beautiful here, but there's no place like home. I love Christmas traditions, too! Your traditions sound truly wonderful.
