Christmas Time!

Well it is that time of year. I'm not sure where the weeks went between Thanksgiving and Christmas but Christmas is less than a week away. Ryan and I did our Christmas last night since we will be with family on Christmas Day. It was kind of fun to think that next year we'd have an addition to our family but selfishly I must say I am glad I got one Christmas with just Ryan.

We've been doing this Beth Moore Bible study together called the Patriarchs. I was telling mom the other day how fun it is to be able to read the Bible together and pray together as a couple. I know that sounds weird but it is such a crucial element to a relationship and I know Ryan would agree when I say it has turned into such a special time for us.

As we get closer and closer to bringing this new life in the world, I think we both are beginning to understand just how important it is to raise children in the Bible and how important it is as a family unit, not just church on Sundays. So please continue to pray for us that we would continue to grow in Christ and continue to prepare for this little one by learning our roles as God created them. The man to be the spiritual leader of the home, and the woman to be his helpmate.

I hope everyone has a great Christmas and enjoys their time with family and friends. Make sure to give thanks to God for sending his Son so we could all know Him!!
