My Christmas tradition.....

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten,
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white

Everyone I am sure has a Christmas tradition or two! I have a few but one of my non Biblical tradition's is to watch Irving Berlin's "White Christmas" Starring Bing Crosby, Danny Kaye, Rosemary Coloony and Vera Allen. As long as I can remember I have watched that movie on TV with my gramma and grampa Culbertson. I have the movie memorized, I know all the songs and could probably do the dance numbers too! My grampa Bob was a great closet entertainer! He loved to dance and sing! He taught me to jitterbug and waltz! He also help me find my love for singing by just hearing him sing the songs he grew up listening too and also all the AWESOME old skool hymns! Most people would have thought of Grampa not liking Christmas...But he loved it for the One reason! Our Savoir! But then him and gramma had two secondary reasons to love Christmas...me and Sandy! They would take us to go and by a pretty dress we would wear for our Church Christmas programs each year and then that would also conclude dinner at Sizzler! Grampa loved that place! Grampa would get steak and Gramma, Sandy and I would get the salad bar! One year Grampa sang "Oh Holy Night" for the Church Christmas program and I got a litte teary hearing him sing that song from his heart! Thru out grampas life he had many reasons to just give up and go along the worlds way of living but he always seemed to carry that pride know ing that he was a child of God even though grampa had a hard time dealing with the fact we have eternal security! The 100% garuntee that we would never loose our salvation if we truely meant that we wanted Christ in our lives/hearts. At the time I was born grampa and gramma were not going to church and grampa said that his grandchildren will be going to Church and Im thankful for the devotion they both had for keeping us head deep in the word and consistant in Church!
I have made some small and big mistakes in my life. But I know that the best thing I ever did was secure my life! I celebrate Christmas because that was the beginning of my new life!!!
Thank you Grampa and Gramma!!!
I love you both!
