How exciting is Christmas?! I remember lying in bed with my eyes wide open years ago. I would stay awake listening for Santa’s sleigh to land on our roof and to hear the reindeer’s hooves. I sometimes would look out the window and I swear I even saw him flying once. It was a night […] Read more…

I love Christmas Sunday! It was so fun to see everyone in their pretty Christmas dresses and hearing the Christmas program at church.
