Here is that view I promised you yesterday...this is my view this morning as it started snowing again...another 6 inches! Then the sun came out this afternoon and Caleb and I headed out for a sled ride down our drive.
In the window you will see our manger....this is a new tradition this year. The tradition of the straw. Every time we do a good deed for someone else we put a piece of straw in the manger....doing someones chores....being kind...sharing something.....it all counts! And as we turn our hearts towards each other the manger fills up with straw and hopefully by Christmas we have a soft bed for the baby Jesus to lay on. Because isn't it all about our hearts and loving one another...not just at this time of year but all year long!!

Christmas is only 4 days away....are your hearts ready?
