Military Style Christmas

Whether this is your first military Christmas or you have a few under your belt, the military lifestyle always throws in a few twists!

If you are lucky enough to have your spouse home this holiday season, you may not have a chance to head home for Christmas. Keep your family and friends involved by sending out Christmas cards, and is possible video taping you having dinner, opening presents and sending it to your friends and family.

If your husband is deployed, keep him involved by sending him a care package for Christmas! If he loves sugar cookies you can video tape making the cookies and include that in the package. If you always put up a tree at home, you can include a little tree in the package.Decorations and presents are a plus.

Remember the reason for the season. Christmas is celebrating the day Jesus was born and all that comes with it. No matter what your situation is, just remembering he was born to pay the debt of our sins and give us the chance to get into Heaven gives us a chance to reflect on all the blessings in our lives.

Have a very Merry Christmas :)
