Merry Christmas!


Merry Christmas! It's amazing to me how quickly things come and go--this holiday was no exception. I feel like life is on fast forward and the slow down button is broken! This Christmas, we were lucky enough to actually have my husband's family come to us, and everyone actually was able to make it! It's been years since they had a good family portrait, so the boys were gracious enough to put on their black and their jeans and act as models for me! I love the last picture--Hannah is the youngest of the Johnson clan, and I love how her brothers surround her and she's just tickled pink in the middle of them. Lord help her first boyfriend! And, might I add that my husband took the picture of me with his mom and sister. He has a hidden gifting that he doesn't realize yet!
An unexpected Christmas surprise was waiting for me when I got up yesterday morning: a few days ago, bludomain.com did a call for self portraits 125x125 pixels--they had something special planned for Christmas. I got on their blog and was joyfully surprised to see my self portrait among the 30 chosen winners out of 467 entries! Go check it out: I'm in the third row! I find out sometime today what my prize is. I never win anything!!

Anyway, it was a wonderful holiday, worshiping our Saviour, spending time with family, another perfect turkey and even snow in the afternoon. Thank You Lord for sending your Son to die for me that I might have an incredible relationship with You! M
erry Christmas--may Jesus continue to bless you and your family!!
