Happy Winter + THE WORLD DIDN'T END!!!!!!!

Hello!

WE ARE ALL STILL HERE!!!!!  THE WORLD DIDN'T END!!!!!!!  YAY!!!!!  Did anyone think that was ACTUALLY going to happen?  Not moi; at least not because of a Mayan Calendar.

Anyway, Happy Winter!  It is FINALLY officially winter!  It sure felt like it today!  It has been snowing, and is supposed to keep on going till Christmas!

Do you like my Christmas blog design?  I think it's really cute!

We have our tree up and decorated, our nativity scene set up, and it feels very Christmasy in here.  We are also doing our Advent calendar to hear the true story and meaning of Christmas, which we really enjoy.  It's not about candy and gifts - it's about JESUS!  Are you doing an Advent calendar?

Speaking of Christmas... Can you believe it's only 4 days away?  I sure can't.  I mean... where has this year gone?  It has been a fantastical year, full of many ups, downs, and wonderful things.  I can't believe it is almost gone already.  It seems like every year just gets shorter.  Farewell, 2012.  But, there's only one thing you can do, right?

2013, here I come!!!!!!

Haha!  But seriously.

I hope you are all having a wonderful First-Day-of-Winter-the-World-Didn't-End-Day!!!
