Jesus is The Reason

With the news of the previous post, My Son in Law and Daughter and four children are flying home for Christmas holidays.
While that is great news, the reason is sad. However we will never give up hope.
I was debating on a tree this year, as we are alone most of the time, so today I pulled it out. Or rather, David pulled it out of storage for me. Now to decorate and get this house smelling and looking like Christmas around here, and remembering the reason for the season.

Jesus is the Reason for the Season

I have decorated the entry with spiral trees, poinsettias and garland. I Love this time of year, I love to bake lots of goodies, I love to see my friends, I love the colors of Christmas. Anyone that knows me will tell you, "Sue Decorates a lot with Red" so this gives me more red to work with.

Today I spent the entire day cleaning the old garage and putting it back in order. It looks so nice in there.
Coy, while here painted the bathroom for me and helped Ron with some of the work. That was a nice treat. We painted the interior last weekend and I finally put it in order today.
I even washed off everything before it went back into the garage.
While working I had K-Love on and listened to my Positive Encouraging music. I encourage each of you to find it in your area. It is a feel good station, gospel music and prayer for callers.
To think I almost sold that stereo unit. I found it when we moved here and it was in the garbage. I took it in, cleaned it, and wired it back together. All I can do is listen to the radio, the 8 track or record player does not work but having that radio is a blessing. ( I bet some of you do not know what an 8 track is.)
So on to my daughters visit, She will be here on the 25Th. We will have a late dinner with Ken arriving the same day or so. ( I think). That way everyone can have Christmas at home with the children opening their presents under their own tree.

We want everyone to know, whatever is fine with us. We are just here when you need us and love being part of your lives.

Our tree will be ready and pumpkin pies will be cooling. Fudge and Rum balls and Almond Roca will be on trays with Loads of cookies. Ken will get his Blueberry pie and David will get his Fudge. That is what he looks forward to. Fudge!! As for me I can't eat any of it. Maybe a nibble wont hurt. Fa La La La La, La La La La.

So off to start dinner, Then once I sit tonight I may not get up for hours and hours. May even fall asleep in my chair.
