Wonderful Opportunities :)

I love Christmas -- it is an exhausting season but a great season because of all the wonderful opportunities you have to share the joy and love Christ gives us so freely!!

We started the weekend with a Christmas gift exchange with some other couples. It is always marvelous to share time and fellowship with good friends!!! It was a blast.

Monday was fairly mild -- I needed a day to catch up my laundry :)

Yesterday we had a FABULOUS opportunity to present Christmas carols and a Living Nativity outside a local business. It is their HUGE yearly sale just before Christmas and the manager asked one of the local pastors to present carolers and a living Nativity. The pastor's congregation is small and mostly older and it is COLD still here in Helena. So he invited our family and numerous other home-schoolers and believers to join with them. It was SOOOO much fun to be able to share the TRUE meaning of Christmas. By the end of the evening we were all cold and a little hoarse but what a great time!!!!

A couple of girls came back home with Gabrielle to watch a movie and one stayed the night. Wonderful memories!!!!
