Blessed Christmas & a Happy New Year!

Here's wishing you God's blessing on your Christmas celebration and may you receive much comfort from the true meaning of this season. We always comment on how empty people must feel after the commercial frenzy of the season is over and the pretty lights are gone. It's so easy to get caught up in our own version of things and forget what all the fuss is about. It's truly a time to reflect on Christ's birth and God's goodness and grace to us his people. We surely have a comfort that knows no time limits... May God surround you and bless you as you enter the New Year 2010.

So far we've been enjoying the company of many friends and family members - a great birthday celebration for Henry, a neighborhood get-together, family over for Christmas dinner and more. Lots of games have come out of storage and a new game (Poker) is being learnt and enjoyed (no gambling, just chips...) Today Henry took Alec & a friend ice-skating while Hannah and I went to look for some badly needed clothing (yet another growth spurt...) Again I've been too busy cooking, baking, serving and talking to remember to capture some of the fun on my camera. I'll try to remember next week!

Christmas Day was spent at Ed and Lor's, with much enjoyment. The day before we saw "the sound of music", an awesome gift to remember. And today...we got SNOW, yes, everything is "clean and white". I am about to have a walk today...

Love, sis Gerry
