From Georgia to New Jersey (Oh my!)

We'll be off for NJ in a few days... The boys are riding with the hubby and the gals get to travel in Rudolph =)

I'm so excited to get to see my family and some friends I have left behind in my home state... that will be a blessing.

I'm glad the kids get to see their grandparents too. They haven't seen them since the beginning of the year.

I'm making a CD of my fave Christmas songs to take with us and here are the lyrics to my number one fave of all time:

Mary Did You Know? (Kenny Rogers/Wynnona Judd)

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy will one day walk on water?

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?

Did you know,
that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you've delivered,
will soon deliver you.

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?

Mary, did you know
your baby boy will calm a storm with his hand?

Did you know,
that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
When you kiss your little baby,
you've kissed the face of God.

The blind will see
The deaf will hear
The dead will live again.
The lame will leap
The dumb will speak
The praises of The Lamb.

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?

Mary, did you know
that your baby boy will one day rule the nations?

Did you know,
that your baby boy is heaven's perfect lamb?
This sleeping child you're holding, is the great I AM.


Five days til Christmas and the spirit is cracking through =)
