Excited about Christmas, family, food, and all the rest!

 We are only two days from hitting the road to Dalton, GA and Chattanooga, TN to visit family for Christmas! Peyton is carrying on about Santa, and all the bright lights decorating the houses in the neighborhood. We are already packing, doing the last of the laundry, and trying to clean everything up before our nine day Christmas vacation.

I'm counting down the days until I get to taste turkey and dressing, russian tea, and fudge. The anticipation of seeing Peyton's eyes wide open as he sees all his toys, and everything else that follows is running through my mind.

As much as I (and everyone else) am excited to celebrate this Christmas season, I am reminded that we are serving a risen Savior, and not an infant child! Let us always remember that Christ is to be praised, honored and cherished everyday of the year, and not just on December 25th!

 "And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord."  – Luke 2:10,11
