These are a few of my favorite things

Elf and It's a Wonderful Life.  I'm getting warm fuzzies just thinking about these two classics.

My sock monkey slippers.  They are so comfortable and are the cutest thing I have ever put on my feet.

Stocking stuffers.  Buckyballs = the perfect stocking stuffer this year.

Buckeye balls, not to be confused with Buckyballs.  These chocolate peanut butter delights are AMAZING.  And if your extra special you put rice krispies in them to make them even more delicious.

White lights.  I grew up with the colored lights on our Christmas tree and I loved them.  However, I have white lights on my tree for several reasons, but mostly because they give the most warm and pretty glow.

Mariah Carey Christmas and Amy Grant Christmas, much to the dismay of my husband.

Family Time under the Christmas Tree.

What are some of your favorite things?

In a Stable?

Just read this blog post and was again, hit in the face with Mary's story.  Take a moment out of your day to read this post and think about the story of the woman God chose to take care of His son.

I will praise Him for the stables in my life because He is sovereign and He is good.

Tender Tennessee Christmas with a surprise bonus of snow accumulation (and seriously crazy drivers).

Slow and chilly mornings with the family.  Luke looking at his first snowfall in our new home.

Lights and shiny ornaments are curious and wonderful entertainment for this sweet babe.

Probably my favorite Christmas candy

Patiently waiting to make his first Christmas ornament

Just a few of the lovely things we get to experience this Christmas Season.  We are blessed.
