"So the Word became human and lived here on earth among us. He was full of unfailing love and faithfulness. And we have seen his glory, the glory of the only Son of the Father." John 1:14, NLT.
Well, I have made a perfect start to my holiday decorations. I decided this year to start at the beginning! We are celebrating the gift of Christ so naturally, the nativity should come first. This nativity is my absolute favorite Christmas decoration I own anyway! My mom and dad painted it their first married Christmas, so it's older than me!!! So, I dusted Rose then lovingly cleaned each figure with an old toothbrush and put it out in a place of honor...a place where I will have to move it if Cash comes over, lol.
Yesterday, I wrapped the first gift. I promise I will wait until at least November 15th to put up the tree.
So, Obama won. My prayer is that I have seriously misjudged him. Maybe he's just what we need? Maybe not. I guess we're gonna find out though, huh? The good news is that the casino's went down (seriously, they wanted to put casino legislation IN OUR STATE CONSTITUTION!) and the levy for the Morrow County Sheriff's passed. I'll be watching Obama with great anticipation. If nothing else, this should be very interesting and historical.
Cash will leave your nativity alone IF he can play with Maggie's hoorsees...LOL
ReplyDeleteI dont know if you saw, but Billy Graham put out a comment on Obama that loosely stated "join me in supporting him, and join me in praying for his guidance..." Pretty cool stuff I thought. Billy Graham is da shizz so anything he says I stare awe-filled and say "ok, yeah, ok"
ReplyDeleteI love your Nativity set Cheryl...it's gorgeous!! I've been filled with the Christmas spirit lately, and can not wait to start decorating!! However, I usually wait until the week of Thanksgiving to get it started. That, and I have tons of deep cleaning I want to get done, decluttering, and stuff. Anyway, I too am praying for our country, and for Obama. He's gonna need all the help he can get!!
