This past weekend was wonderful. we had a mostly quiet time except for Friday evening when we had our Christmas Banquet @ the Church which is always a wonderful time.Friday I went with our school on the kids' privilege day and i ICE SKATED!! It was so much fun! I will post a picture as soon as my friend Gen send me some pictures. I ice skated when I was 9 or 10 and now again for the first time. I prayed a LOT and I didn't fall... what fun.
Today the kids are home for the Christmas Break and I love having them here. I just do. Jaku works today for the last time until next week so we will be doing a lot of family things.
I decided that because I probably will not be around "cyberly" this week, I am going to be giving away 2 beautiful Anna Griffin Scrapbooking kits. There is more than 50 pieces in each kit including some (my favorite) fabric embellishments. It's beautiful! And perfect for scrapbooking your Christmas pictures. Just leave me a Christmas comment! I will pick the winners no later than Friday! This picture is one I found online (there's much more stuff in the ones I have)
I am currently reading this book... and it's in one word... absolutely amazing!! I am enjoying every word and I am so inspired.A thought for today! Luke 1 He will be great, be called 'Son of the Highest.' The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David; He will rule Jacob's house forever— no end, ever, to his Kingdom."
Merry Christmas
Love
Wilna

(Luk 2:11) For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.

Merry Christmas Wilna and family, here is wishing you all the best over this wonderful festive season, may God bless your family and hope all your dreams come true in 2009.
I just found your blog and love your ideas. Merry Christmas from a total stranger! Lyn
Merry Christmas to you and your family. I found your blog a month or so ago, and love the Bible verses you use. It's wonderful to find someone who shares their relationship with Jesus Christ.
I agree, Greg Mortenson's book, Three Cups of Tea is so inspiring. It reads like the best fiction book you have ever read, can't put it down, but it is a true story. So inspiring. If you have money to donate to an incredibly worthy cause, his is one to give money to, they will make such good use of it. Merry Christmas to you and thanks for sharing your life with us.

One of my clients told me about this book! I have heard it is absolutely amazing, I'm glad to hear that you are enjoying it!

Happy christmas Wilna! Enjoy your time with the family!
Merry Christmas...
love your blog. I too love that book Three Cups of Tea. Have you read Eat Pray Love? Or Wide Awake? or How Starbucks Saved my Life? You might like those too. Thank you for all the great ideas.
Merry Christmas Wilna! Enjoy your holidays with your gorgeous girls and your hubby!
