An Unforgetable Christmas !

Part 3: Two dreams came true

We hope you all had a merry and God-centered Christmas ! This year again, we were thinking about what God wants for Christmas. So we did our best to give, open and surrender our HEART to our Savior, the Light of the world, the Prince of Peace. We ended up being blessed beyond our hope and dreams.

Since couple years now, I dreamed to have a nativity scene. I could not find it.. So I finally gave up ! Then something amazing happened. The first day of December, we discovered a present at our door step with a card saying this:

And then, every few days, we received gifts at our door step from those mysterious friends!

Each gift bag had one character of the Nativity,

The last day, December 25th, we got baby Jesus, the true meaning of Christmas!!

God is good, all the time! The second dream that came true is the wonderful Christmas celebration at our church. Our family was part of a play called: Christmas in reverse! Finally, I had my cousin Sara visiting from Montreal with her three boys and my Nephew Zié and his wife Nicole from Washington State to share Christmas with us. Those are some pictures of what will be for our family : a CHRISTMAS TO REMEMBER !!

Love In Pink!

I remember all those Valentine’s days we celebrated together with my Marc. Each celebration was something different, but always retained the magic of this special day!

The most memorable Valentine’s Day was in 2010 when we were in Burkina Faso (West Africa). That morning, February 14, 2010, we discovered our courtyard covered of pink flowers. It was magical even for our children (I mean two of them: Dara and Michael)

This year, our Valentine’s celebration will be magical as well: snow-covered, with -5°C to -10°C according to Edmonton weather’s broadcast. It will also be special because my husband has to work that day from 5 pm to 1 am. Do you follow me, if our love does not keep his magic every day, what different will make a Valentine’s Day celebration?

Let’s be positive: if I can not get magic of love this February 14, 2014 between 5 pm and 1 am, my heart is still full of love to share with those around me who lack it everyday. Come on, you, all my friends and our Adventure fellows, Happy Valentine’s Day! We love you!
