It is snowing!! In Texas! On Christmas Eve!!!








Ok, Ok so it doesn't look like this but it is really SNOWING!!! I have never ever ever seen snow on Christmas here! Yay! *I just hope it sticks....*

Red, White and Blue Christmas.....

Thinking about all the families with soldiers overseas for Christmas. I am so thankful Dad is home and that we made it through those Christmas days without him.

wait·ing: 4 a : to be ready and available. 2 a : to look forward expectantly

I recently watched Fireproof again, and fell in love with the message this song has! (Again) I do not want to grow weary in waiting for what God's has promised.



He will not let me down. I may not get to plan how I want my life to go, but I know it will be so much better because of that!

I am waiting on so many things. So many unknowns. What am I supposed to do after school? What job am I to have? Insurance? Car? How am I going to...
Where is he? Who is he?! The list goes on.

But today is no different from any other day. So I will lay my list at His feet. I don't need it, and there will probably be a new one tomorrow. =)

I will wait.

Christmas



I love Christmas cookies...
and music...
and decorations...
and the meaning....
and the laughter....
and the cocoa....
and the lights....
and the smells....
and the joy....
and the bustle....
and the crazy mishaps....
and getting to say " Oh I celebrate the real meaning of " The Holidays" so Merry Christmas to you!"....
and the cold...
and the fire place...
and the stockings....
and the tree....
and the baby that SAVED the world...
and the Father that loved us that much....
and the young mother who found favor with God and trusted....
and the young father who believed what the angel said...
and the inn keeper that let them use a stall for the Prince of Peace to be born among the lambs....
and most of all, The Promise that Christmas reminds us of.
