Spirit of the Season

It's the spirit of the season. You can feel it in the air!

 Last Friday night, we attended Russell's company Christmas party. It was so good to see Russell's co-workers again and meet new ones as well. Russell works for a great company and he loves it. What a blessing.

Tony has worked for this company for years. It is an extra blessing that Russell and Tony work together.

 We even had cake. It was so yummy!

 The decorations were so pretty. It reminded me of candy land. :) The colors just popped. Look at this centerpiece! Guess who won it? ME! I never win much of anything at all. I was pretty surprised.

 Saturday morning, Russell and I volunteered at our church's 10th annual Christmas Store. Our church was able to minister to 500 families by giving away toys and other items to families. It felt so wonderful to help others and serve.

 Mason, Carly, and Sarah!

 I was tickled to see my sweet co-worker, Beth. She teaches pre-school and does a fabulous job. I always love visiting with her.

It was also great to see sweet Rhyanne at the Christmas store.

 

It was great to help out our community. We can't wait to help out next year! This is what Christmas is all about.

 

Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the rock of our salvation. Psalm 95:1
