A White Christmas

December 25, 2010

What a beautiful way to celebrate Christmas, seeing snow blanket and cover the earth just like we are made "white as snow" as the shed blood of Jesus Christ blankets and covers His children! Zac and I were so excited to wake up to snow on Christmas day and the excitement continued throughout the day as the snow continued to fall. We enjoyed an amazing morning with family and later headed out into the snow to play. We even convinced my dad to take us out on an adventure to experience this magnificent treat! Just a few pictures from our outing :)

Christmas Morning Whiteout

Zac and I woke up to beautiful snow falling on Christmas morning! We quickly got dressed and headed over to my parents house with our car packed with gifts and overnight bags. It felt like we were packing the car for an entire week. Zac thought this snow was the best Christmas present ever :) Just a few photos of our morning drive over for Christmas breakfast.

When I Think About The Lord

Does this season make you think about the Lord? Sometimes its so easy to get caught up in what the world has made Christmas. I know I am guilty. It's not that the Lord doesn't want us to enjoy this time with family and friends, He does. He wants us to be a blessing to others and to be blessed. Remember to Think About the Lord this Christmas and remember what He saved you from. I know for me this song brings back memories of when I was at NC State and the Lord grabbed my attention and showed me exactly how and why He had saved me. What a blessing to remember ALL that He has done. Count your blessings this season..name them ONE by ONE!

Let it Snow

My husband is obsessed with snow. He doesn't just "like" snow, he is "in love" with snow. When he finds out that we might have snow he sits for hours at his computer looking at weather models and trying to predict just what it will do. When it snowed just a few days ago he was up 5 times that night just to get up and look out the window to see what it was doing. Now, I am a fan of snow too, but I get quite a kick out of seeing him peer for hours out the window while the snow pours down. He says at least 100 times "BABE come seeee this" or "BABE its a white out you HAVE to see this!". He could possibly enjoy snow more than any kid I have ever known. If he knows it is snowing on Cowee Mtn or in the Gap he always has to take a drive just to see what its doing. I caught a few pictures of him peering out the windows...
