When I went out to take pictures of the snow before it melts away, it was sprinkling. Ugh! At least, I got them in time. Enjoy!

Tonight, I was walking Buffy in the yard between the manse and the church on a nice and cool twilight. While she was busy sniffing around, I looked up at the sky and saw the big, white moon through the trees. I ran inside to get the camera and learned that it needed to be charged. Rats! So I grabbed my iPhone and took a couple of snapshots.
It looked like a full moon, but I wasn’t quite sure. On the Internet, I looked it up, and we are two days away from a full moon. I wish y’all could see the moon through the trees; it was a beautiful view. Granted it’s not the best quality picture, but here it is.

Also I took some pictures of Buffy as we came back into the house. She’s so cute, especially after a bath. Here’s one of them.

Recently, it has been cold, snowy, and rainy. Finally today, it warmed up to 60’s. It amazes me when I see that there is still ice on the sides of the mountains. In some places, the ice is melting and the water comes down quickly over the rocks. It’s beautiful.

Isn’t she cute?
In the back, do you see these boxes? We are in the last phase of unpacking. Now we are sorting through these boxes and figuring out where to put them. Some of them have been packed from the first move: Ohio to Virginia. Posted via Pixelpipe.
Buffy loves to sleep on top of pillows. I personally think she’s like that princess and the pea. Sometimes, Diana likes to be close to Buffy and watch Buffy sleep.

We chose to buy a live tree this year. It’s a Norfolk Pine and is about 3 feet tall. It’s cute and simple, like us.
For ornaments, we hung that were light and small. On top of the tree, there are two doves from our wedding cake, a crocheted angel from the first Christmas party in Staunton, and the Moravian star. Also, one Moravian candle is sitting in the window. We also hung silver garland to give it some pizazz.

The cat, Diana, came and said, “Lo, behold the Messiah has come!”
That’s our new Nativity set. Yes, even the Nutcracker came to see the baby Jesus.

Tonight, we had a Candlelight Christmas service. In his sermon, Rob read the text from John 1:1-14. He talked about his experiences growing up as a Moravian and the church’s traditions with light. Two symbols that represent the light of Christ are the Moravian candle and the Moravian star. With these symbols, they help us to remember to keep that light shining in the darkness of the world.
Merry Christmas!
P.S. This star is hanging in the sanctuary. Will post beautiful pictures of the sanctuary and the church later.
