Signs of Christmas are everywhere, and I LOVE it! Last night we went to Oklahoma City for the Glenn Beck Christmas show, and it was AWESOME!!! Definitely worth the hour and a half drive each way. The show was all about Christmas (novel concept in today's world of "holidays"), what Christmas has been like for him and the true meaning of Christmas - which, incidently Glenn says is redemption; it's not just about the birth of Christ, but also about how he was born, how he was raised, how he lived, and how he died. Redemtion, the most perfect gift ever. Never thought if it exactly that way. Very cool.
Just before we left for OKC, it started snowing. Now, lwt's just say this....snow + Oklahoma = bad....VERY bad. Noone knows how to drive on it here and they all act like a bunch of idiots. So, by the time we got home, there was a bunch of snow on the ground. Well, a bunch for Oklahoma - like 4 inches or something, which resulted in totally covered streets (including the not-so-free-freeway) and school closings today. The only time I like snow is when I can stay home and just enjoy it. I hate having to go out in it. But, I love it, and I love taking pictues of it...just enjoying it. You know what I mean? So long as I can just stay home and enjoy it, I love it! Speaking of loving it, the puppies LOVE the snow, especially Mimi. They love to play in it and root around in it and get ice clumps all in their fur and have white faces. They are hysterical! Mimi does NOT want to come in even when she starts shivering!
Sunday night, we went on a limo ride around town to see the Christmas lights. It was awesome! We went with my friend Rachel and her family and Bob came too. There was Martinelli's (sparkling apple juice, my fave) and we saw a couple of unbelievable set ups. No, I mean really, unbelievable. We also went to Rhema Bible College where they have a huge amount of lights all over the small campus. Truly beautiful. The gal driving didn't know that many awesome places to see, but we definitely saw some good stuff. I LOVE Christmas lights!
