Home Sweet Home - and Merry Christmas, too!

I'm sure I didn't get this much loving on the whole trip! There's nothing like the arms of a child to warm you, is there? And nothing quite like their imagination, either - Georgia's the one who put me next to Jesus in the nativity scene - "out of the mouths of babes", eh?

I guess I'll be seeing you the next time I go out of town - there's talk of Canada this summer - and a visit or two to Colorado is certain to happen as well! Yeh, Grands.











As I finish blogging this past summer's trip, it's already Christmas! Where has the time gone?



I love everything about Christmas, don't you? I'm dreaming of finding a telephoto lens under the tree (anyone got a used one) for my lovely big Canon camera - and a backpack to hold my 'equipment' in. But more than the presents, I love the cards, the kids and the carols. May it all point to the reason for the season - to worship the King of Kings! Every time I read the gospel accounts of the Story in the bible, I stand amazed that God would make Himself human for us - to live among us, to feel our joys & pains and to die for us!! It's BEARly believable but SO TRUE!





Notice this year's Baker Christmas card! We figure that if we get it delivered by the 4th of January, we'll be OK - 'cause then it'll be on time for the Tenth Day of Christmas!!

I hope everyone has a great Christmas, 2009 and a fabulously healthy 2010 filled with faith, family and friends - and the occasional trip, too!

Love, Teddy Ricardo
