A Christmas Video (Let Him In by Michael McLean)

Christmas!

Let me start by saying that Christmas year was wonderful!! But it was a start late for me. I wasn't really into the Christmas spirit until late December. It just didn't feel like it was here for me. I don't know what really caused this feeling but it was there. I was more a Grinch this year, until Dec 18th I went with Mom, T, R, Ryan, & Ty to our family ward breakfast. There they just showed slides of members in the ward of past Christmas's and had some people tell some things that meant to them about Christmas, and it just brought the spirit that I felt was missing finally here! And it just kept growing as time went on. Song on the radio, to show on TV.... The Christmas Spirit came and went all to soon. But it was a great one while it lasted!
Brandon who is up in Canada serving his mission called us Christmas morning  for a bit. What was really cool is that we were able to skype with him later that night. To be able to see him and talk to him was just Fabulous!! I love my family so MUCH!! and I am truly blessed to have them in my life. We also had both grandmas's over and were able to spend time with them. 

So I was browsing  YOUTUBE and came across a song that I love from the "Forgotten Carols" " Let him in" and wanted to share it, the video it was put with and the song  just added to the Christmas Spirit I felt this season.  Hope that as the new year comes we can all remember to Let him in each and every day!!

Katy Perry - Firework




I love this song and wanted to share it. Below are the lyrics to the song. Enjoy!

"Firework"
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag,
drifting through the wind
wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
like a house of cards,
one blow from caving in?

Do you ever feel already buried deep?
6 feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you

You just gotta ignite, the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in down-own-own

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe your reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite, the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, Oh, Oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in down-own-own

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through-ough-ough

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, Oh, Oh"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, Oh, Oh"
You're gonna leave 'em all in down-own-own

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
