Christmas eBook review just for you!

How exciting is this! I can't wait to share this review with you and hope to hear how the eBook blesses you!

This review is for the eBook Christ-Centered Christmas: The Ultimate Guide to Celebrating a Christmas Your Family Will Never Forget by Hal and Melanie Young, it’s available for purchase through http://www.raisingrealmen.com/ourstore/christmasshop/
Not having grown up in a Christian home I missed out on a lot of the teaching that I have read about in the eBook Christ-Centered Christmas: The Ultimate Guide to Celebrating a Christmas Your Family Will Never Forget by Hal and Melanie Young. I am very excited to share this eBook with my family and start some new traditions in our household! "It's not a matter of whether you celebrate or not, but Who is the center of our celebration!" This is so key, especially in today's fast paced retail minded world.

I knew that there was some sort of meaning behind decorating at Christmas time, the authors explain in detail the meaning behind them. The photos throughout the eBook are incredible along with accompanying Scripture verses, they bring out the true meaning of the Christmas season. The photos really touched me and seemed to help my heart understand the Christmas season more, I think over time the material word has crept into my heart.

The Caroling Party idea is GREAT! We have gone caroling, but we never dressed up in costumes for it. It was a blessing to read about the background information that you included with the Christmas Hymns, this would be great to add to family devotion time.

It's such a blessing to read about others Christmas baking traditions and gift giving traditions. You have included some wonderful looking recipes in this eBook. The sausage ball recipe will be a big hit at our Christmas gathering this year. The Christmas Baking Spreadsheet is really cool too! That would be great to have on hand around Thanksgiving time too when baking items go on sale. Aunt Lucy's Escalloped Pineapple may also end up on our dinner table this Christmas. The photos look so delicious and are making me hungry as I write this.

The Santa Claus section is a must read for all Christian families.

The eBook Christ-Centered Christmas: The Ultimate Guide to Celebrating a Christmas Your Family Will Never Forget would be a wonderful gift to send to a new believer in Christ, yet it's profitable for seasoned Christians as well. I think it's so easy for the world to creep into our hearts and minds, that we are corrupted and don't even realize it. This eBook was a real eye opener to me and I plan to have my family read over it too (as I write this review my husband has been reading the eBook over my shoulder :O)

Waiting, Waiting, Waiting

That is what life seems to be all about.

Tomorrow I see the first of many specialist, so we shall see what he has to say about it all.

I've kept busy here, decluttering and tossing stuff. I gathered up a large box full of scrapbooking supplies and gave them to a girl at church. And ya know those piles of papers that we all have, I've been sorting through those and have a rather large 'to be read pile!'. (yes, you know those hidden away piles of misc. papers, magazines, flyers and such that you had good intentions of reading.....lol).

I've also stumbled across a few Christmas gifts that need to be wrapped. Along with the latest homeschool class schedule for the spring semester, would like to sign our son up for a few classes, but not sure what the future holds as I have to wait 6-8 weeks before the doctors say that they will do any testing, that right there cuts into the Spring semester.

School has been going well, our son is working on a huge research paper on The Battle of Britain, I'm working on teaching him how to hone in on the topic, as he is pulling in way too much information (thinks he is doing a college paper!). He needs to narrow it down a bit, there is a TON of really neat info, but he needs to fine tune it.

The chickens are freezing their tail feathers off........lol. Not really but their water has been frozen over every morning. So it's for sure winter time. They are enjoying some goodies, we sliced up pumpkins yesterday and they like those. We have 1 watermelon left, I'm saving that for a mid winter treat, hoping it lasts.

Husband is burying himself in his work, that is how he deals with all this. No Christmas tree up yet, but I have a few snowmen out. I think we will forgo the tree this year since I just don't have the strength or energy to deal with it. In thinking along those lines, there was never any mention of Christmas decorations in the Bible, so I don't think that we are missing out on much this year, decorating seems to be a world's view of Christmas. We have been enjoying Christmas music and seeing the lights displayed on many homes near us. One tradition that we will keep for sure this year is driving to look at light displays. It just dawned on me that we did not get a Christmas tree up last year either, we were in the middle of a remodeling project and there was just no room for it. I used my Cricut Machine to make a cute cut out of a tree with a train underneath it.

What are some low key Christmas traditions that you enjoy as a family?
