We made lots of Christmas decorations for our tree, and cards to send to other people.
We even had a party with little presents.
And did a Christmas program for our parents
Such adorable little Christmas elves :)

God and Peppermint Mocha
Sugar Free Peppermint Mocha creamer is my absolute favorite. I buy it as soon as it comes out in the fall and drink basically nothing else with my coffee until it goes away around.... well... around now. I'll miss it for a while, but eventually I will forget about it. Well not exactly forget- but I stop checking the shelf for it whenever I need creamer, and after a while, I forget just how good it is, and I'm fine using other kinds, because, hey, they're pretty good too, right?
I think I do that to God too- but way more often. He shows me how good He is to me and I'm blown away... for a while. When I stop paying attention- looking for the everyday evidence of His love, and then I forget how good He really is, so I start to use other stuff, and begin to think, "They're nearly as good right?" Shopping, TV, movies, food. Whatever. Basically just as good when I'm sad or lonely or stressed, right? False.
But, oh, when He calls me back again, and reminds me again of how good He really is! Its mind blowing. It so clearly beats all competition! Its- well- its like the best first sip of peppermint mocha ever.
