Me and some friends for our book club Christmas outing-saw a Christmas Jazz show at the Red Cloud Opera House.

Whew, it has been a busy month and it is hard to believe that it is almost 2010! We had a very Merry Christmas, even though we endured a blizzard on Christmas day! We were blessed to still be able to be together, I know many families were unable to do so because of the weather. We have one more Christmas this Saturday at my moms and then sadly, the Christmas festivities will be over. 8 ( Above are some of highlights of our Christmas festivities. I am so incredibly blessed to have such amazing friends and family to celebrate the season, specifically God's love for all of us. Those times are more special to me--more special than the presents and all of that.

So here is to good friends and amazing family and more important than anything, God's love forus and for Him sending Jesus to this earth to be our Savior. May God bless you all.
