Giveaway Winner & Festivities

I hope you had a great weekend!  Mine was packed full to the brim.  And this week is going to be packed full too!  After this week though….things should slow down and I can enjoy two relaxing weeks before Christmas! 

This week is our big Christmas production at church.  We do “The Gospel According to Scrooge” every year.  We do the show 4 nights in a row and always have a great turnout.  My brother and I usually perform a scene together, but he is not able to do it this year.  So somehow they roped Mr. Tim into doing it! hahaha!  These are a few pictures from last years musical.

Oh I wanted to announce the GIVEAWAY WINNER of the Glory Accessories giveaway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh this:   I got some candy cane hershey kisses last night!  I am sooooo excited!  They just might be my favorite Christmas candy. 

Moment with husband this week:   Last night we took the Lord’s Supper at church.  We were singing Amazing Grace….and I felt Tim grab my leg.  I looked over at him and his eyes were filled with tears.  He whispered to me that this was Baby Shepard’s first Lord’s Supper.  That was it for me…..tears!  It was all just too much thinking about God’s amazing grace, what He did for us and this amazing blessing He has given us this Christmas.  Something that we have been longing for several Christmases past.  It was a special night.

How could I forget……we took our college group to the Dixie Stampede on Saturday!  I cannot tell you how much I LOVE that place.  It’s so great.  It was a fun way to kick off the Christmas season.  Oh and we all wore crazy sweaters.  Of course!  I will have pictures to share soon. 

Sorry I have been lagging on the pictures lately!

Merry Christmas! 

xo,

Amanda
