Merry Christmas!

What a fun week we are having for Judah's first Christmas! We began it with meeting Pop and Granma in Asheville last weekend. After living in North Carolina almost five years, can you believe this was our first trip to Asheville and the Biltmore?! The weather was perfect and the air was filled with plenty of Christmas spirit. We had a great time exploring downtown~including delicious dinner, Sunday breakfast, and of course a candy shop (Pop's favorite part :-)
Here we go!
Wow!
Double Wow!

The Biltmore was absolutely beautiful, and I love that we experienced it with a dash of Christmas in every room. Judah seemed to enjoy every minute...especially the fact that there were Christmas trees down every hall and in every room.  The mountains, architect, decor, lights, delicious lunch, and shopping....so.much.fun.
So much fun with Granma & Pop!
 Of course the highlight of the day was Judah's face when he saw Santa. In case I haven't told you before, Judah loves everyone...apparently, even big jolly guys with white beards :-)

The remainder of the week has been filled with lots of love, laughter, and excitement....and even some early gift-opening.

 We are beyond blessed and rejoicing for having our little miracle in our arms this Christmas.

Merry Christmas to you all and thank you, Jesus, for your light, grace & truth!
"There was the true Light, which coming into the world, enlightens every man....And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten through the Father, full of grace and truth." John 1: 9,14
