Last night, the group of Americans here celebrated Christmas together. The Jakus family so graciously hosted the celebration. As Andrew and I were walking to their house I said to him, "It's starting to feel more like Christmas with the snow crunching under my feet." The night was full of listening to Christmas music, munching on all kinds of goodies, a white elephant gift exchange and lots of laughs. Andrew came home with a pocket knife (that he bought!) and I came home with cherry gummies and chocolates. Such a fun evening!
We are flying into the states on the 23rd...so soon! : ) We're so anxious to see family and friends. We'll be home for about a month. Andrew will be turning his cell phone back on so feel free to connect with us!
I hope you are all enjoying this time of the year and the significance that Christ's coming has for us as believers! "Go, tell it on the mountain, over the hills and everywhere! Go, tell it on the mountain that Jesus Christ is born!"
See! That's why I like snow!! I just know that street is not as pretty without it. Nice picture, Halee!!! See you soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jane! You're right about the street...definitely not as pretty without the snow. Making it black and white helped too. :)
