Christmas traditions

It is that time of year where Christmas celebrations are going on everywhere you turn. It is a joyous season, but can also be a season, if we allow it, to be too busy that we forget to slow down and find the real meaning in the season. Christmas is all about celebrating Jesus. For our family we have traditions we do each year like visiting Santa, playing in the snow, going to the Nutcracker, baking cookies, etc... Those traditions are fun and provide so many memories each year, but there are the simple things of just being with our family and having that time to grow with each other and spiritually grow in ourselves that are just as meaningful. Here's to a season filled with fun memories but also allows for the freedom for God to speak and grow within each of us as we take the time to on purpose slow down and enjoy the times of non planned celebrations just as much as the planned ones.
