Holiday Bliss 2010 – December 2nd

Last month, while participating in the Gratitude Challenge, I mentioned my need to make a list.  I never did that.  Now, here we are in December, starting a new daily meme – Holiday Bliss – and I’m feeling the need for another list.  Hopefully I’ll get a chance to make one up soon!

Christmas has become so commercialized over the years, and today I thought I’d focus on The Reason for the Season.  I want to make sure that, first and foremost, my kids remember that we celebrate Christmas because of Jesus! 

I have a new camera, so I thought I’d snap a few pictures of our nativity set(s) to share in this post.  Whatever you do – remember to stop during the busy-ness that is the Christmas season and reflect on the sacrifice that was made for us – without Jesus, there wouldn’t be a Christmas!

 
(excuse the cord – if I had Photoshop, I could get rid of it!)
