Merry Christmas!
What a year it has been!
I wanted to take a moment to wish a very Merry Christmas to all my subscribers and friends! It’s also a good time to tell you how much I appreciate all of you. Thank you for watching, sharing and commenting on the content I have put out this year. We have seen some crazy things happen this past year for sure!
Christmas at the McNeil house has always been a special time. We have a tradition on Christmas Eve going back to when our oldest children were young(over 25 years ago!) of taking them to a special restaurant where they could order anything they wanted and movie at a theater afterwards. That is not a cheap tradition believe me and would never have been started if not for a generous relative of Andrea’s who made it possible in the early years. Of course dear old Dad had to take over eventually to make sure it stayed alive lol. We have had tight years but God has always provided one way or another. Over the years we have had some really fun times and special memories. Of course Christmas morning with Andrea’s special monkey bread and my hot chocolate for breakfast(talk about a sugar rush!) followed by presents is a mainstay. No presents until we read the Christmas story and thank the Lord for coming to earth, the greatest gift ever!
My prayer for you as you read this is that you will know the depth of the love God has for you. Right where you are, even if in sorrow or pain, He is Emmanuel, God with us. I pray that you will be blessed to overflowing in the New Year. Merry Christmas everyone!!!
