Going to the south (Savannah and Charleston) on our girls trip










 Moving to Arizona for the summer and being able to spend lots of time with my family there








Meeting new life long friends in Arizona

Merry Christmas

For unto us a child is born; unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder.—Isaiah 9:6

I am grateful to be celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ today on this Christmas day. I am so grateful that He came to this earth to save us all. He is our redeemer.I testify of His love for us. He has known us a very long time. He is my best friend. He loves imperfect me-perfectly. Just as He loves you. His arms are open to me even when I may not be reaching for Him, but He is ready to take me into Those arms when I need it. I find that amazing. He is our perfect example. I love Him.  I am so incredibly thankful for Him and for His birth. Merry Christmas!
