Deck the espresso machine!

In the midst of a hectic Thursday full of lab, class, workout and about 3 meetings, I managed to fit in some time to help decorate McConn for the holiday. Actually I didn't manage, I MADE time for it. I don't think you understand my love for Christmas. It goes beyond just enjoying it to getting giddy over it. Micah and Josh were sitting there as we were decorating around them. I walked over to place a Santa hat on Josh (I was already wearing one, of course) and Micah informed me that I was glowing I was so excited. It's true; I could feel the smile on my face from one ear to the other. I just can't help it! I just LOVE Christmas! I know so many people get tired of the commercialism of Christmas, but the things I love the most are the family time, the Christmas Eve service at church by candlelight, and caroling with my family at the nursing home. The last one is often a reality check for me which is often what Christmas is for me.....I often realize just how incredibly blessed I am, and that my friends is why I love this time of year. I've been not only blessed with an amazing family and so many material possessions but I've been blessed with an amazing Savior.
