Christmas 2008



I absolutely love Christmas and all our family traditions that go along with it. We arrived at Big and Pie's house on December 20 to spend some time with the Cooper Tyners! It was great having them for some of the holidays this year. So, that is the picture of Tyner and Logan in the bathtub. We had a big family dinner on Sunday and exchanged presents between all the cousins! Our Christmas Eve tradition is so special. After the Christmas Eve service we go to Rob and Anna's house. Before we get to enjoy the declicious array of food we walk down to the Johnson's to see Santa and spread some holiday cheer to our second family. All the Johnson grandchildren are around the same ages as Tyner and Maggie. So, it is so much fun seeing them all play together! We rap up Christmas Eve night at Rob and Anna's with a reading of Luke 2 and Twas the Night Before Christmas and a singing of Silent Night! Family traditions are so special!

Verse of the Week

Our verse this week is Luke 2:9-11. "An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all people. Today in the town of David a SAvior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord.
