One of my favorite parts of Christmas is all the fun movies.. Elf, Miracle on 34th Street, White Christmas (cause you know the best things happen while you’re dancing.. :P ) I just love them! But my favorite has always been A Charlie Brown Christmas. Everything from the little Christmas tree to Snoopy’s light display, but this was hands down my favorite part. It’s so easy to get caught up in all the wrong things this time of year. I went to Target to pick out Christmas cards and couldn’t believe it when there were only 3 boxes on that huge wall of Christmas cards that even referenced something having to do with Christ being born. Crazy! Thank God we have something much bigger to celebrate this December! All the good things we focus on this time of year such as peace, joy, giving, and love, are all characteristics that perfectly describe one person completely; Jesus Christ! Anyway, enjoy this friendly reality check about this holiday season from the Peanuts gang :0)
This, right here, is what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown :0)
“And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not! For, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men!” – Luke 2:8-14
I’ve got another fun kiddos portrait session tomorrow so make sure you check back Monday for some of my favorites! :0)
