December

December is always a crazy month for everyone... from the shopping to the wrapping to the parties to the family gatherings to the baking to the excessive eating; it is truly the most WONDERFUL time of the year but also one of the busiest! For us it included all of the above but add in celebrating my 30th birthday to a super bad cold for Caleb and I to football games to driving five hours to see family. Woah.. now you can see why I am so behind in my blogging...

Here are some of my favorite moments from December 2009

Stoneking Christmas

This picture represents peace... something that is hard to find in the midst of such a busy season. I am so thankful for the PEACE that God gave in the birth of His Son Jesus over 2000 years ago.
