It's Beginning to Feel (A Little) Like Christmas...

It's Christmastime, but with the craze of the move it's been not my typical holiday season:

 The Christmas tree I wish we had

 The Christmas Tree we do have...

All Christmas shopping for the boys sadly took place over
a two hour period Dec 23rd 

- sponsored by our mini Toys R Us
(talk about a commercial looking Christmas)

 

But things began to happen to bring the Christmas to life:

The building put up some decorations

and

I played some favorite Christmas music about the Savior

We decorated cookies

And the boys repeatedly watched the LDS Christmas Devotional

Even being reverent for every prayer

And so I was reminded that Christmas isn't what's given to you, but what you give and provide.  

It's time with loved ones and inviting the message of the Savior into your home.
