Tis the Season

Well, now that it is officially December, I can post some pictures that are full of holiday spirit!  (even though I have been listening to Christmas music since before Thanksgiving)  This Tuesday Kasey and I set up our tree!  It looks beautiful and it was so much fun to open ornaments that we have bought eachother over the past 3 years.  Each one has a little story and brought a smile to our faces.  Kasey also put up our Christmas lights on our house.  They look awesome!  Today, December 5th, Kasey and I celebrate 3 years of being a couple!  I figure we are still allowed to celebrate dating anniversaries!  =)  We are going to Disneyland tomorrow rain or shine to celebrate!  Other than that, the semester is winding down, I have one more paper to write and a BIG Psychotherapy Conference to attend next weekend, then I'm done for the year!!  We wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

"6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. 7 And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, and laid Him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn" (Luke 2:6-7).

"8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night... 10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people" (Luke 2:8,10).

"And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the Babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger" (Luke 2:12).

"6 For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder: and His Name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince Of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6)
