Christmas is definitely our favorite time of the year. This one being our very first Christmas together as a married couple is extra exciting. We have our tree trimmed, lights up, Christmas scented candles blazing through the house, and one of our favorite wedding gifts- a nativity scene from Kenya displayed. We're looking forward to this season being a time of joy and reflection as we celebrate the season of advent. Our hope for this time of the year is that we wouldn't get caught up in the busyness of the world around us- the shopping, parties, gifts, baking, etc. but rather, be in this season with a sense of longing and joy as we celebrate Jesus' birth.
