Our Christmas Program 2009

This year we did something a little different for our Church Christmas Program. All the Sunday School Classes did something different, like a little 10 minute program...
I think it turned out to be really good...From the Beginner class to the Teens we truly showed the real meaning of Christmas. Here's some pictures... I didn't take any of them, thanks to My Aunt Amy for taking them...with out her I wouldn't have this post~
The Beginner Class, sang a few songs..and told the story of how the Candy Cane was created... they were sooooo cute!!!!

The Primary Class did a Show and Tell... Molly tells about her Ornament...a Nativity Scene...


The Primary Class Singing....


The Jr. Class singing in Costume...Guess who Mary is?



Okay the Teen Class...did a skit... I'm the girl working at a store and Sarah's buying something..we start talking about her new cell phone...the Christmas parties we are gonna go to....




Then a couple of our other Friends show up...and we talked some more about what we think Christmas is about....Then we see Preacher Johnny...and he hears what we are talking about...and he explains that Christmas isn't about Parties, and presents...But it's about God's gift to us...when He sent His Son into the world to save us!
I think it went pretty good...





The Teen Class Singing...



The Patch the Pirate Club ended the program with a song...
and then Daddy closed the night with a short message.
We handed out the Kids presents..that they couldn't hardly wait to get... I wish I had took pictures....Then we had some refreshments afterwards...it was a fun night. Donnie even got me to try Eggnog, it was a first for me... He was drinking it like it was soooo good, so I was like okay I'll try it. Which I was not very smart...After gathering enough courage, I swallowed that nasty stuff:( It was not what I imagined...needless to say everyone laughed...it was just not Good!! Thank you Donnie...Sarah told me about a different kind I might like, But I don't think I'll try it anytime soon.
Well enough of my rambling, I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!!!
And safe travel during the holiday, This may be my last post this week....So enjoy stuffing yourself, eating to much fudge, opening tons of presents, giving to the ones you love, being with family, and most of all Don't forget to Keep Christ in Christmas!!!
LoveY'all~

The Greatest Gift Ever Given


"1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David )
5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men."

A Very Random Picture Post

Hey Ya'll this is a very random post, especially the last picture...hehe
The rest of the pictures were taken a while back, and I just never posted about them.
Me and my family went to an old home place, where they show you how they would celebrate Christmas back in the 1800's. It was really cool, and really cold...But they warmed us up with some hot apple cider at the end. Here's some Random pictures for ya~
One of the Ladies working in the Kitchen, making corn bread...
a very important thing to make in the South!

Trying some homemade gingerbread...

Weird picture of me....standing outside on of the old houses.


A 1800's Christmas dinner...it looked really good....a funny thing one of the Ladies told us, was when the civil war was over, and the South were still very poor, they couldn't give their children gifts like they wanted to, so they told them that the Scallywag Yankees had kidnapped Santa Claus, so that's why they didn't get any presents...hehehe I thought that was funny~


I told you the Last picture was funny, I found this when I went to google something the other day, and I just had to save it! I mean who doesn't like Popeye?
