Merry Christmas!

It's that wonderful time of the year- Christmas! Time to gather around with our families and to celebrate Jesus's birth and the most wonderful gift of all time-Salvation sent to us in the form of God's only son! I hope you all have a Merry Christmas and enjoy this wonderful season. I am excited to announce that all of my immediate family plus my brother-in-law, future sister-in-law, nephew, niece and Grandma are joining this year for Christmas, as well as our dear neighbor. What a wonderful celebration we're going to have, we're so excited! So enjoy your Christmas in two days and have fun with your families, it's so hard these days to get everyone together so it's always a blessing to have your family with you. Merry Christmas from Emily and Bodie. :) Bodie decided to knock snow off the tree before we took this picture, but it sure did have a nice affect! The silly boy was doing this the ENTIRE time of the photo shoot. He loves to mess up photos,

Blessings.

All of us have been blessed in our lives with special gifts, and it shouldn't take us five minutes to name them. If we looked honestly at what we had probably all of us couldn't even begin to name all the blessings we have in our life! Thanksgiving this year was an amazing time-most of my family was here (minus one brother and a nephew) and we really enjoyed spending time with each other and thanking God for everything He's done for us this year. These last couple weeks have been very revealing to me in showing me just how much I have to be thankful for and what tremendous blessing I have in my life. One of them has been here for so long I had almost missed he was a blessing until God showed me how his presence changed my life. Enter Bodie, a horse I've known since I was twelve years old. He's always been there at my neighbor's house, I could see him whenever I wanted and my neighbor often left me in charge of taking care of him when she went on vacation.
