Christmas Brunch

To kick off the Advent season (which begins tomorrow!) I hosted a Christmas Brunch with some of my very sweet friends from Providence Church in Lynchburg. They very kindly drove all the way to my home to spend the morning with me!

We played a Christmas game, sang carols, and shared our families' advent traditions. 

It was a lovely time of friendship and fellowship.

I expected nothing less... :)

 These ladies are really so dear to me. I've been blessed beyond measure to rub shoulders with such godly, inspiring Christian women.

(And they helped provide a great deal of the food, too!)

Tamara, Elizabeth, Meg, Matthew, Megan, Toni, Katie, Holly

It was a treat to have them in my home!

Happy Advent!
