It's Christmas time in the City!

Christmas is upon us! Tomorrow is Christmas Eve and I am still wrapping presents, as I am sure many of you are also doing. We have some big plans for our Christmas here. Christmas Eve we will have a mexican fiesta with tacos and fajitas. Jared has put together a lessons and carols for us, I am looking forward to that! Then Christmas morning we will all get together for a big breakfast and open our secret santa gifts.

We try to make it feel like Christmas by playing some good music, we have also been celebrating advent together these past four weeks. However, in our city and even out here where we live the environment is not filled with lights, decorations, or the excitement you can feel from others at this time of year.

Yesterday, Jared and I had a date night in the city and found a few spots that were lit up with Christmas Cheer! Here are some of the pictures.

And today it snowed! (This took 3 days to finish so the top part was written before 2 days before Christmas, now it is 2 days after Christmas!)I know for many of you it was a white Christmas, but well ours came 2 days too late! We are staying in tonight to stay safe and warm from the below freezing weather.

Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
