christmas, new year

ok where to start? i guess pa kinda where our christmas break started,    we spent 2 wks in Pa this year,   had a great christmas how do you define having a great christmas is it being together as a family, lots of gifts, getting exactly wat you have wanted?  Other christmases i would have said being all together with family but this year i had to dig deeper, we wern't all together my sis and family couldn't make it and thier are other familys who are missing loved ones to..... Its about jesus it has to be,its where the Joy and peace are found its not about gifts its not even about family its about our relationship with Christ, its the finished work on the cross......we did have a great time with family dont get me wrong:) christmas eve we were together,  we had seafood and lots of yummy food and hangin out,    Christmas morning we got up early after only a few hrs of sleep and went to times sq. church with some awesome people!!!   monday we got to hangout with more friends and monday night me and Steve slipped away for the night ...was a late anniversary and everything else:) kinda do that in Pa because we have great babysitters:):)     We got back Friday morning at 3.....              saturday night we were together as a family i made stromboli and got some treats for the kids, we put them to bed, and we watched the ball drop in times sq. made pina coladas and played yahtzee.....the real competitive yahtzee for those of u that read my blog and are laughing at this:):)      i always wander what the new year will hold,   i dont know but i thank God he does and i trust him in the plans he has for us this yr.... . i feel a sense of excitement and seriousness this yr...  i am challenged with my commitment to prayer and fasting and a deeper trust in him in hearing him speak and allowing the holy spirit to work in me.....In praying for revival in our land..... In wisdom guiding and leading our children to the Lord for thier needs that only he can supply.....         Zachariah is growing, he is still not as chubby as my others, not sure why he thinks he needs his bottle all the time even at night he will wake up twice:(     he seems long a liitlt more like josh at his age.....he travels really good so far which is great!!!  he loves to sit in his seat in the middle of his brothers...he seems to love action and likes to sit up best, he will be rolling soon......  and soo  its 2012 life goes on...    may this yr be a yr of blessing to ya'll, a yr of vision...    where there is no vision my people perish...proverbs 29:18..         pics to come later
