Christmas Time...

It's here, it's here, it's finally here!

And I can't keep up.

Actually, I am trying my best to keep up, it's just happening so fast. I want time to slow down a little so I can soak up the Christmas-y events and cherish them.

Alas, this past week was made up of a few mentionable Christmas events...

We went to the last movie showing at the Fox Theatre and I know the suspense is killing you so I'll just tell you what the movie was....
HOME ALONE! 
It was freezing, but oh so worth it. I didn't need my fingers or toes anyway...



And tonight we got our freshly cut Douglas Fir Christmas tree!
Doug is about 5 foot tall, and has a few funky branches that are really long, actually, they are seriously long.  But we still love him...

 


And tomorrow night we will be attending our traditional trip to Disneyland Park to see the Candlelight Ceremony where the nativity story is read straight from the bible. Accompanied by a full on choir and orchestra, It. Is. Amazing. 

It really puts the entire season into perspective for me, not to mention the fact we sing hymns/traditional Christmas music together as one big crowd. Every year I wonder to myself if that is what heaven will be like, unified voices praising the Lord... so amazing. 

God is so good to our little family, and we love Christmas time so much, see?
