While You Were Sleeping

This is an awesome video with a powerful message. If you don't watch the video please read the lyrics below. Oh little town of Bethlehem Looks like another silent night Above your deep and dreamless sleep A giant star lights up the sky And while you're lying in the dark There shines an everlasting light For the King has left His throne And is sleeping in a manger tonight Oh Bethlehem, what you have missed while you were sleeping For God became a man And stepped into your world today Oh Bethlehem, you will go down in history As a city with no room for its King While you were sleeping While you were sleeping Oh little town of Jerusalem Looks like another silent night The Father gave His only Son The Way, the Truth, the Life had come But there was no room for Him in the world He came to save Jerusalem, what you have missed while you were sleeping The Savior of the world is dying on your cross today Jerusalem, you will go down in history As a city with no room for its King While y...

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Emily's Cookies

Image
As promised, here are the cookies Emily decorated. She had a great time. :-) She's ready to make another batch! We'll see.

A trip back to Landrum

Yesterday was Andrew's mom's 67th birthday and we took her to the Drake House for lunch. I can't say that we were very impressed with the buffet choices this visit. (oh-well) After lunch we headed over to the the antique shops in downtown Landrum and browsed around. I've been wanting an old milk can for some time now to sit out on our porch, and we happened to spot one in one of the stores for a great deal. I'll take a picture and post it later. I wouldn't advise antique shopping with a stroller however- They are not stroller friendly stores!! Or a curious little 8 year old girl. Emily seemed to have quite an appreciation for all the old stuff and had to keep being reminded DON'T TOUCH! Ughhhhh! Tyler of course was bored to death. "Can we go now"? Let's just say the next time we go antiquing it won't be with our children!

Anybody want a cookie?

Last night Andrew and I mixed up the cookie dough for sugar cookies. Tonight my mom came over and helped roll the dough, bake and then decorate. What a MESS!! Lots of icing and lots of sprinkles. My favorites are the candy canes. Emily wanted to help decorate but went off to sleep before we got to that part. We saved the ornament ones for her to do tomorrow. We'll post pictures after they are decorated.
