Cozy Christmas Times




We had a fun little family outing to a new bakery in town that produces delicious sour dough and other assorted breads and goodies.



Daniel and Patrice are so both skilled sour dough bakers and connoisseurs so we thought we'd go and check out the local goods.
And sip coffee, of course. 



Sweet Becca has joined us for our early Christmas so it was a delight to have her along AND to run into Bethany! 


Ahhh, these incredible grown up versions of the littles I have been blessed to know for a very long time now!


******JOY!******


The kitchen was a hub of activity as we prepared for our early Christmas celebration.


All these happy helpers... a mother's absolute delight!


 Leo enjoyed watching the festivities from his comfy couch.


Another circle of love, gathering around the long kitchen table that has seen such an assortment of celebrations over the years.
God's goodness right here.
Right now.



And the cozy hours following the feast where quiet conversations hum and happy contented activities occur as lights twinkle and gifts are shared.


God is in the midst of us.
Emmanuel...
A million thank you's would never suffice but we will worship you forever for coming 
and changing everything.
