Christmas Day ~



Our Christmas Day was lovely as we spent time with our two dear Grandma's; Grandma Shirly, Dad's mom, and Great Grandma Lucille, Grandma Shirley's mom. Time with these strong women of faith is always very special. We enjoyed a yummy dinner, complete with Great Grandma's famous green salad, (Can't have a family dinner without it!) and Mom's delicious red raspberry drink.
The day was topped off with a game of rook, and a group phone call to our cousin in Texas, Eliot. Eliot's birthday is on Christmas Day, so we all called to give him special birthday wishes!

I praise the Lord for my father, who is so concious of his to duty in leading and protecting his family. As we search out how to honor the Lord in the celebration of Christmas, I have realized how earnestly and honestly he is seeking out the matter, and is faithful to follow through with everything the Lord has revealed to us in our journey. Thank-you Dad!

Thank-you Nikkae! We were so excited to find Dutch Blitz cards in a homeschooling catalog that Mom had! The game brings back so many fun memories of the first time we ever played the game. With you!

Missing you all lots,
