The Gift of Love


This time of year always makes me think of the song "Because I Have Been Given Much". Not a very Christmasy song, but if you listen to the words I think it has everything to do with the Christmas season. The line that has always touched me is "I shall divide my gifts from thee with every brother that I see". This line I think embodies Christ. He always gave and helped everyone. It is wonderful that his charity is celebrated as well as his birth through donations of money, food, gifts, and giving of time to the less fortunate. Loving everyone is at the heart of what Christ taught and is something we should do our best to emulate all year long.

It's Always Fun When Grandma Comes!

We went to the Museum at Thanksgiving Point. There were lots of things to Touch, 

Read, 
and exhibits to look at. 
This is how Calvin spent most of his time. 
This is how Felix spent most of his time. 
Running in and out of tunnels.



Making friends in the play area.
Running back to the tunnel. (His favorite tunnel was the star tunnel at the beginning of the museum.)



We saw the exhibits.

We ran through the exhibits...


We made our own water ways. And played in the sand and water.


We had a fun day at the museum!

We had a super fun time with grandma Tungate!!!
