Christmas!

On Dec. 19th, our church held our usual Christmas Eve Candlelight Service.  It was a beautiful evening with the Chirstmas story being read throughout the service, and instrumentals and songs woven in between.  We also changed our regualr meal schedule to hors' d'oeuvres for that night, which we all enjoyed!  Below are some pictures taken from that day...

Okay, these next pictures don't have anything to do with Christmas, besides the fact that we are all enjoying our Christmas break!  Ethan, Mom, and I recently went riding...

The young goats all wishing they could go too!

And...drum roll please...we got SNOW!  The day after Christmas!  It's been the first time we've gotten snow for Christmas since they started keeping track of the weather in the 1800's!  It wasn't a whole lot, but it did make everything very pretty! 

As a matter of fact, it is still out there!  It hasn't gotten warm enough to melt it all yet!


And last but not least, I couldn't end this post without putting a picture of our tree on Christmas Day!


Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!
