Christmas decoration shopping...

In mid-November, we went shopping for some Christmas decorations... and - as with most shopping here in Seoul - we were overwhelmed at the amount of decorations COVERING each little store in the markets. It is definitely a different experience from shopping in the states!

While there were LOTS of fun things to choose from, we ended up getting some traditional decorations to bring the Christmas spirit home. I just wanted to include a couple of pictures of the experience for you to see the fun decorations - and share in the shopping experience. :)

It is such a fun season - with colorful decorations and Christmas music playing everywhere... As we enter into this month of shopping, gift giving, and Christmas movies, I pray that we are gripped by the Reason for the season - the birth of Jesus Christ our Savior.

For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Isaiah 9:6

Happy Holidays!
