How does time continue to fly on by? I've wanted to post a blog update several times in the last couple of weeks and just never had the time, or, upon sitting down with a few minutes in the evening, promptly fell asleep! Sigh. That's life, I suppose! But I'm here now, so enough with the time flies diatribe! I've been scrapping (I guess I've got time to scrap...just not to
blog! ;) and I've got lots to share with you all! I've also been preparing for Christmas! As the pastoral couple in our International Church, we've been keeping busy! We had a lovely Christmas dinner, a Christmas movie night, special services and Sunday school lessons, and this weekend we've got 2 meetings: one on Friday afternoon and the Christmas Eve Carols and Candle lighting service. We've attended the Ramallah city Christmas tree lighting (and saw the prime minister of
Palestine, Salam Fayad, which was cool!), and have been baking, watching holiday movies, and lighting our own Advent wreath at home with our kids. I love this holiday so very much! I snapped this cool picture of the Advent candles at Mosaic International Church last week on my iPod:

Scrapbooking post coming TOMORROW! I promise! :D
