"O come let us adore Him"

“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” - Isaiah 9:6

aaaaaaaaaaaaand somewhere along the way in these past 2000 some years we have associated His birth with the decorating of trees and hanging of stockings.

Happy Fathers Day

Happy Father's Day, Faja

I know everyone else thinks their dad is the greatest but no one elses dad is as kind, selfless, generous, loving, intelligent, entertaining, handsome, understanding, goofy, hard working, corny, forgiving or as involved as my father. For an earthly father...he is as good as it gets.  He is the definition of a man...a gentleman, and I hope future babies daddy (aka a husband) is every ounce of a father to my children as my father has been to me. 

My dad always answers my phone calls... even if he is in a meeting...just to make sure everything is ok. He never raises his voice. He thinks he is so funny that he laughs at his jokes before he reaches the punch line (thats where I get it from). If you think of the most obvious thing in a situation, my dad will turn it into a corny joke. When I tell him "Dad...you are being corny" he responds "How corny? Corn on the cob? or creamed corn?".....Told you.

Before work in the morning my dad would kiss me on the forehead and wish me a "great and groovy day"until the day I moved out. He attended all of my soccer games, choir concerts and dance recitals and anything else I made him go to ;). He has a very distinct cough, sneeze and a clearing of the throat. Brother and I have imitations down to a T. He is a mentor and a friend. I can turn to him for anything.
So maybe Im bragging...
just a bit...
but...
maybe thats what I wanted.

I love my daddy!

(Forgive the terrible quality of the photos. I sent brother on a mission today to find pictures and email them to me......He took pictures of the pictures.....with his iphone....then emailed them. Oh Brother)

Home for the Holidays





















{picture taken on our visit to brother in October}
I never thought last week would end! My goodness. The break is here and I am ready to soak up all 2 weeks of it.  But I must say the best part of the break is having all four of us in the same house. Brother hasn't been home since summer and we haven't all been in the same house at the same time since probably this time last year.
The not best part is my parents turning my room into a workout room. I get the couch. I honestly don't mind because it is the comfiest couch ever made. Anyone who has sat on it can attest to it.

I love the 5 days leading up to Christmas. It is filled with so much activity. Parties, coffee dates (or lets be honest....hot chocolate in my case) with old friends. Christmas shopping. I just LOVE it.

Enjoy this time with your family and friends
