It's Beginning to look a alot like Christmas

     Yesterday we got a text message from our daughter with a picture of their house at night. It showed the house with Christmas lights. She said they are not finished. They turned them on to see how it was coming. Sorry I'm not posting that picture but I can't spoiled their surprise. It looked beautiful, can't wait to see the finished product.
     You may be thinking it's a little early to be putting up Christmas lights. She said they want to do a little at a time so they don't get overwhelmed.

      When I was in high school my family moved to Gastonia, NC. That's not far from McAdenville, NC. CHRISTMAS TOWN USA. The town is beautiful. Cars line up for miles to get the opportunity to drive through. Others like to walk through.
      When Kevin was in high school his family moved to Richmond, VA. Home of the TACKY LIGHT TOUR. Every year our family would go to Richmond to see the lights. Last year we took our new son in love. My sister told me she likes this title instead of son in law. I agree.
     

Arielle and Jaron in Richmond, VA 

       We don't put up this many lights but we love Christmas. We have put up several trees a year. Arielle had a small one for her room. We had a Family Tree, a Spiral Tree, and a Theme Tree. Our daughter and her new husband are excited to get to decorate their new home.
      Matter of fact, they started planning this before they got married. They got married last New Years' Eve. They had Christmas lights everywhere.  Her dad and I bought as any as we could after Christmas the year before (on Clearance) to have them for her wedding. Some were on the ceiling in the reception hall with a white parachute covering them. There were some on the ground lining the way from Garden City Chapel to the reception hall and then there were more in the chapel hanging behind tulle. Everything was beautiful.
     Now those same Christmas lights will adorn their home. Let the celebration of Christ's birth begin!!!! Go ahead and put out your table nativity.

     Let's not let Santa have two months and Christ just one day!

Have a Great Day!
Mama D,

John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again: "I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows Me will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life."
