Most Wonderful Time of the Year!!!!
Christmas is rapidly approaching. For Christmas this year, I am going buy my amazing wife a huge...Sorry, can't tell you right now! She might read this. Christmas is all about tradition for us. There will be presents of course, but I enjoy our family traditions more than anything. On Christmas Eve, we always open one present each...of course, we all know what we are getting... pajamas. Then we will wear these pajamas on Christmas morning. Also on Christmas Eve, we will read none other than "The Night Before Christmas." Christmas day involves one of our newer traditions from a few years ago. We bake a bunch of cookies and deliver them to local firefighters who have to work on Christmas day. We used to deliver to cops and hospitals as well, but Aaron wants us to hunt down all the firehouses this year. It's a great way to teach our kids to give on Christmas.
Of course, there is one more tradition. As always, we celebrate the birth of Christ. Unfortunately, this is a tradition that some are trying to remove, but in our house this is the one part of Christmas that won't change. Other traditions may come and go, but this one will always remain.
If you have an interesting family tradition, let me know. We may steal and make it our own!

good to meet you. We will have our leadership team come and visit The Net church. I will probably meet you then. It is good being like minded.
Travis, this is awesome. IF we have kids I hope we can instill some of these same values in them.
