Day: December 25, 2023
We spent Christmas day traveling back to Texas from Washington, D.C. and ended up eating tacos and egg rolls for Christmas dinner at Jack-in-the-Box. That was the only place we could find that was open. Actually, we had a fabulous Christmas with Christian and Kelly yesterday. My Crocs and Lorena’s slippers in the picture on the left were gifts from Kelly. We cooked and at a fabulous ribeye roast (bone in) before we opened presents. Honestly, it was the best Christmas we have shared together in years. There are a LOT of confusing things going on in all our lives with church and just life in general, but we read Luke 2 about what Christmas is really all about between dinner and opening presents. It was a reminder that Jesus Christ is still King and Lord and that are hope is only in him and his sacrifice. I am SO grateful for every reminder of that, especially on occasions like Christmas.
