Happy new year!! 

I'm super excited to start this new year off on a Sunday! Now, there were moments this morning where the phrase "church at night" sounded really good!! Especially after being up so late last night. But I've been staying up late a bunch of nights lately…the mind of the creative…never sleeping!! LOL!!

This morning we had a marvelous service at church. We sang a bunch of really great songs, heard a marvelous word filled with hope, and we fellowshipped with our church family. It was so encouraging and uplifting!! I feel fortified, armored, and ready for anything that the world can throw at me this year!!

speaking of Christmas, we always let the parents of the youngest children in the family choose where to have Christmas dinner. So we had it over at my brother's home. His twin girlies were the cutest little Christmas twins ever…
