the madness begins!

(my FAVORITE Christmas movie with the sweetest message)

Tomorrow starts off our Christmas festivities! The next few days are going to be a whirlwind!

Thursday- off to the Stock's (our adopted family :) to go caroling
Friday- Mike's side of the family's Christmas
Saturday- My MawMaw's house with my dad's family
Sunday- My parents' house with my mom's family
Monday- still at my mom & dad's to hang with my brothers, sis-in-law and nephews

Phew! Just thinking about it makes me tired. Aren't these vacations supposed to be relaxing?! I guess not! BUT I am really excited to see everyone (our family ROCKS!) and celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. I don't always remember to focus on the main reason we celebrate during the holidays but we must never forget and forever be grateful for His Atonement and for the knowledge we have that He lives and loves us, and that through Him, we can gain true and everlasting happiness.
Have a happy, safe, and wonderful Christmas!
