We put up the tree today. O Tannenbaum, O Tannenbaum 🎶
A walk in the woods. Andrew took this picture.
Helping decorate the 🎄.
The tree decorating crew. A much smaller tree than last year.
They looked at a homegrown tree as a potential (it’s one Andrew and I planted in 2012, and will have to be cut down for a road) but the shape wasn’t quite what the boys were looking for.
Grandma’s tree is up.
They raised this broiler, butchered it and it was a truly homemade meal. Garden potatoes, carrots, onions and a homegrown chicken. God is a good provider!
Dear Savior, haste! Come, come to earth.
Dispel the night and show your face,
And bid us hail the dawn of grace.
O come, Divine Messiah!
The world in silence waits the day
When hope shall sing its triumph,
And sadness flee away.
