Hey Y'all!!!
Christmas has come and gone and everybody was busting at their seams.. after devouring all those awesome christmas dinners... but it wasn't the meals or the get togethers the real meaning of Christmas.... celebrating Jesus' birth and God's ultimate gift to us all: His only son to take our sins away from us FOR GOOD!!! God is surely awesome in every way possible and impossibly imagined.
My Christmas was awesome despite it was the first christmas without Grandma (God rest her soul). The day before Christmas eve was pretty hard because that night it finally hit me that Grandma was gone for good and I wasn't sure if this christmas was any good at all but no... Yippy and her family was just awesome... they all made me felt right at home and it was quite an experience eating an ukrainian christmas eve dinner, it was my first time and it was awesome!!! I was quite surprised when yippy's grandparents and great aunt gave me gifts I wasn't prepared for that and its like they all accepted me as part of their family which is so awesome!! I love them all... especially you Yippy ♥ Thank you for cheering me up that night... it was quite hard but you made it easy for me to cope with the loss of my grandma... on Christmas I went to Edmonton to spend time with my family and my bro in law's family Boy was it fun!!!! wish you were there Yippy.... had so much food Turkey, Ham, carrots n peas, mashed potatoes, broccoli, etc.... stuffing!!!! and what a christmas!!! it snows on christmas day finallly!!! for so many christmas we dont have that now we do!!! it was so awesome!!!
on boxing day I went and helped my bro Paul get his furnitures in my truck and trailer, before that Paul and i went to visit my dad it was very good it was my first visit since the memorial service for my grandma... i was nervous but it later vanished then we caught up news and then we picked up the trailer. after all the furniture I hit the road back home in Calgary and stopped by Tyler and sadie's place to see Yippy, sadie, tyler and tobias.... it was a very good visit!!
Jesus, Thank you sooooooooooo much for giving up the throne for our sake and bear all our sins of past, present AND the future and washed them all for us, we should have been on the cross for our sins but you are willing to do that it is so wonderful thank you so much for that!!! Jesus I love you so much Amen
