They are gagging to do it every year and I have to laugh because it very often looks 'smothered' and I have to edit afterwards when they've gone off to play! This year wasn't too bad - I just gave them the decorations and they did it all in about 10 minutes and didn't look too bad! I am loving Ann Voskamp's posts about Christmas and Simoney's too - thinking about the real meaning of Christmas and how when we feel weighed down by it all, it means we've taken something of the world on instead of something of Christ who came to LIFT our burdens... Ann Voskamp's words! I've been thinking of all the 'distractions' that i need to eliminate from Christmas this year... hmmm sorry, didn't mean to write a blog post in your comments section!Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07455290645405576775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21793903.post-4350276859029488772011-12-05T15:22:38.026+13:002011-12-05T15:22:38.026+13:00Just remembered the words of this song PJ.
Christ...Just remembered the words of this song PJ. <br />Christmas isn't Christmas till it happens in your heart, Somewhere deep in side you is where Christmas really starts, so give your heart to Jesus and discover when you do, That's it's Christmas really Christmas for you.<br /><br />Bestest news ever x xEllymaynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21793903.post-29795729370819899192011-12-05T14:19:42.468+13:002011-12-05T14:19:42.468+13:00lovely post kristy! We have a tiny felt tree here ...lovely post kristy! We have a tiny felt tree here which is so sad... it barely raises a cheer in me! However it was enough for the kids to start their usual Christmas joy. I think if we as adults can look back and remember what God did for us at Christmas giving us the ultimate gift, we can see past what this time has become in modern day to the realisation that this was the beginning of our salvation ~ and without it there simply wouldnt be the hope, the joy of the peace... love my Jesus!Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06338253666992441869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21793903.post-22002782299409118572011-12-05T10:46:16.336+13:002011-12-05T10:46:16.336+13:00This is a beautiful post and so true.

Thanks for the recommendation of the Christmas album. I'm downloading it from itunes as I write! And I love the Hillsong one, too. I spotted it on Simoney's wall this morning and have been playing it today! xxremaliahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16987208566270829465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21793903.post-9908835989398440422011-12-05T08:53:52.548+13:002011-12-05T08:53:52.548+13:00was having a similar talk with my husband last nig...was having a similar talk with my husband last night as we sighed at the fact Christmas was looming so close...<br />bad huh.<br />I've had that David Crowder band Christmas album playing since we got up this morning and I'm gearing myself up for getting the christmas tree out of the garage (I really don't like that part though, always scared it's full of spiders!) hahaWidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16699707227049240330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21793903.post-43150709597285884712011-12-05T08:53:10.861+13:002011-12-05T08:53:10.861+13:00What happened to decorating when the kids were asl...What happened to decorating when the kids were asleep?
