SNOW!!!

We had snow yesterday! Not much but enough to play in and make a tiny snowman! It was only about a foot high. I think if we really wanted to make a big snowman we could have but it was extremely cold outside and it would have taken a while. We only got about two inches of snow.(if it was that much) But we enjoyed it anyway!

Christmas is Almost Here!!!

This is that wonderful time of year where we are generous (lol some of us), and we give to each other. Some people call this season "the season of giving". We (as Christians) remember this season as the reminder that God sent his son Jesus Christ down to earth. We are meant to remind ourselves this season of the reason Christ came down, which was to bring glory to his father in the sacrificing of himself for man's sin.
There are many Christmas programs out there that say they promote Christ but don't. Some programs at some churches center around the display given and not the biblical principles of why Christ came. But other churches do want others to glory in the true reason of why Christ came and their programs glorify God in their worship. Grace Life Church of the Shoals puts on a great Christmas program each year that is an example of putting forth biblical music that glorifies God. Their music minister Thomas Clay has his own blog http://www.thomasclay.blogspot.com/.
On the Grace Life Church site they have live streaming of the services and this Sunday night is the Christmas program. It's called the Shoals Christmas Praise. If you'd like to watch it later they have a service archive that shows previous services.

Exams

WOW! Exams are here . . . and they're hard. I'm a home schooled high school student who takes dual-credit courses at a local community college. I took them last year too but this year is a little bit more difficult. lol. I'm taking four classes and thirteen hours this semester. Even though the classes are hard I love the fact that I'll have almost fifty hours of college credits when I graduate high school (which is next semester). I want to be a teacher, maybe teaching math or computers, or just the elementary grades. I like school, but I'm glad this semester is almost over.
