The Gift!! and a Birthday.....

Disclaimer: My pictures and captions are all messed up, but hopefully you can follow me here =)

So today was the day I headed back to church. It seems like it has been forever since I have been there. I was so glad I was able to go today. It was our CHRISTmas program day and it was SO good!!! Our church does a wonderful job of presenting the gospel every single Sunday, but on holidays it is outstanding!! I am so thankful to go to a church that is Christ centered.

Today when I pulled in I prayed for a good parking spot, because I was by myself and it was SO cold, and I'm still on a cane. As I pulled in there was nothing in the first row, so I went to the second, and there was someone pulling out in the front part of the lot. So good and so like my Father.

Then when I went into the bathroom, there was one of Dak's friends that graduated last year. I talked to her for a second and then as I entered the sanctuary, a waitress at one of my favorite restaurants was there and then as I talked to her, my favorite girl Alyssa came up to me with one of her incredibly sweet friends, Airelle, and they said that I would sit with them. They had me a seat IN THE THIRD ROW!!! What GREAT seats!!... for a wonderful program.

It was.....

And it was SO good!! My favorite part was seeing all of the people that came forward and knowing that God was doing a work and they would never be the same!!~ Yep, gained some brothers and sisters in Christ today. Beautiful!!

After the service, they invited me to lunch. How nice is that? These girls are 2 Seniors in High School and a Freshman in college and they invited me to lunch. How sweet!!

We had such a good time.

Of course there was sweet Alyssa.....

Sami.....our college Freshman.....

And Airelle......wow I look old.....anyway.......she is an absolute doll!!!!!
