top ten awesome things about christmas 2012
- it's Christmas. Jesus still loves me, and would come to earth as a poor little baby again tomorrow if i needed Him to. Hey Jesus, it's Your birthday, we're gonna party like it's Your birthday. (yeah i know. not the actual DATE..but the day we celebrate..can you believe someone actually tried to start an argument about this with me this week? hahah ohhh, people.)
- family time. i love it. even when it's insane, chaotic, and overly....warm.
- IT SNOWED. first white christmas i can recall in over a decade..sweet. :)
- gifts..i got super awesome gifts this year. yeah. i'm going there. why were they so awesome? because every single one of them showed evidence that the person who gave it to me cares enough about me to know what things i enjoy. ♥
- gifts..the ones i gave were winners. not to toot my own horn.. i love to see people's faces light up when they open up a gift they actually like. :)
- sledding. on christmas. yeah, i know i mentioned the snow already, but not all snow is sled-able. this was. and it was fun.
- the guinea pig is still alive. he somehow picked up a bad respiratory infection which we were assured would likely kill him in days. he's squeaking at me right now. :)
- we did not have to watch "A Christmas Story." instead, it was a marathon of "Lord of the Rings."
- there is another storm on the way, so both my sisters and their families are staying another day...or two. YAY! more niece & nephew time!!
- the mayans were wrong. hahah not that i believed that silly nonsense...but at least i don't have to hear about it any more!
this is what makes me smile:
unexpected christmas snow.
:)
