A Christmas Wish and a bit about us



 So…I may be getting the hang of this internet thing…maybe too much.  But I thought I’d use this gift vehicle meant for good (internet, social media) to send out a Christmas blessing to all of you…friends and family…and give you a bit of info about the Adnams family.

First…a little about us:

Our Favorite Things:

Craig: teaching math (some days more than others), online games of Risk, playing with the kids, time with Jif, and anything on ESPN.

Jif: Homeschooling (some days more than others), Community Bible Study (best thing we do all week), time with Craig, and hot tea…to start and end the day.

Jake: His new ipod, his dog Bo, playing xbox with friends, playing basketball (that’s new for him), pizza, In and Out burgers and milkshakes, and Duck Dynasty.

Carly:  Time with friends…or her brother…or her parents…or anyone, horseback riding, surfing, any unhealthy microwavable food, anything with sugar in it, and Duck Dynasty.

Things we’ve learned this year:

Craig:  Life isn’t always like math…there aren’t always solutions.

Jif: The most important thing to nurture in the kids…a love for the Lord and for others.

Jake:  Doing what mom or dad asks the first time is always better than what comes after not doing it.

Carly: Make sure you add water when microwaving macaroni and cheese.

Common things heard around the house:

Craig: Don’t mess with the DVR…I am recording the USC game or the Steelers game, or the Yankees game...

Jif:  What?  Dinner?  Didn’t I just feed you people?

Jake: Mom…sorry I couldn’t come do the dishes, my clan was having a meeting.  (Jif: “You have a clan?”  Jake: “Yeah…on Clash of Clans”)

Carly:  Can I go to Justine’s?  Can I go to Amber’s?  Can you call and see if Madi can come over?

Here’s a link to our favorite Christmas song, by Third Day:
 

Our Christmas wish for you all:

That you would know how much Jesus loves you, what His coming to earth…pouring out His grace...means for you, and that you would know His peace and His presence now and always.

Merry Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!

Love,
The Adnams Family
Craig, Jennifer, Jake (14) and Carly (10)
