It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

We have had some fun decorating for Christmas.  I didn't put as much up this year, but have really enjoyed having up what I do.  After our Paris date Jon and I put up our Christmas tree.

On Saturday December 6th,we took some friends with us to the Journey to Bethlehem that the Seventh-day Adventist church puts on.  It is a live nativity, but you travel through the city of Bethlehem, pay taxes, visit the wise men, see the shepherds when they receive word from the angels about the birth of the savior, and of course you come to the stable where Christ was born.  They bring in live animals and everything.  It is a really cool thing they open to the public every year.  We absolutely loved it, and the Zigens, who we took with us, loved it too.  It sure puts you in the Christmas spirit. 

Last night on Saturday Dec 13 we had a Christmas party with some friends.  We had a potluck dinner, played games and had a gift exchange.  It was such a blast!

I made sure I had all my decorations all ready to go, and set the table for a festive dinner.

We had a great time.  Thanks everyone for coming!  Merry Christmas!
