Christmas Time

This is my favorite time of the year. When all the Chirstmas lights make an appearance, and the celebration begins. Chirstmas time means so much, and so much goes on in these few weeks. Today we set up the tree in my house and it was lovely. All the ornaments that bring back memories of years ago, and the pictures and traditions that only Christmas brings. One of my favorite traditions that my family does every Christmas Eve is we all sleep in the living room in sleeping bags and watch the movie White Christmas after coming home from the Christmas Eve service at church. What do you all do to prepare for Christmas?


(sorry about the blurriness, the tree kept moving)
Merry (very early) Christmas everyone!

Reality Factor Retreat 2012

I had been looking forward to this retreat since the end of the last retreat. It's such an amazing time and I can not wait for it to arrive every year. The Reality Factor was this past weekend, and I learned so much about Jesus and what He did for me and I just wish it could have lasted longer. Some of my closest friends were there to share the special memories that we made this retreat. I am already looking forward to next year!
