Peace

These are a few of my favorite ornaments/decorations!! I love to get out all of our Christmas decorations, each one holds such precious memories....


*I am trying to grasp this concept of peace in this season of hustle and bustle!! The kids are growing up so fast and I don't want to waste any energy being worn out and stressed during this holiday!! I pray for God's peace to invade my heart so I can enjoy my family and focus on the reason we have this season in the first place!


















*We got this angel on our Honeymoon in Asheville, NC!! I can't believe in 6 days it will be 10 years!!























*This ball ornament was given to me by my class the year that Francie was born!! They were such a special group, so sweet!!


















*My mom gave me this really beautiful Waterford snowman for Christmas a few years ago!! I collect snowmen and this one is gorgeous!! I love it!!























*These two are my absolute favorites-most valuable snowmen in my collection!! They are also a gift from my mom!! They are Swaravoski crystal and so cute!



















*Birki gave me this one in my stocking one year!! It sits on my front table so I see him first when I come home! He is so adorable, I love his red and he has a little sparkle too!





















*This one is from Birki too!! He is so delicate looking- he looks hand made and like he would come from White Flowers!! I love his reminder too!


"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid." John 14:27
