christmas wishes

In about an hour, Chad and I are heading out of town to visit with our respective families via train in Michigan and Illinois. Our loose ends are tied up here at home, our bags are packed and we're raring to go! Can you believe the holidays are already upon us? Blessings to you and yours during this wonderful time of year.

Note to self: Remember that beyond the presents, beyond the grumpy travelers, beyond any chaos, our God is worthy of praise. He sent us the best message of all—himself in human form to show us the ropes here on earth. He loves us each (yes, even that one guy...) VERY much. Merry Christmas!
