After four years, we've just started getting to know our neighbors down the street, the Floyds, who are wonderful Christians. They have a neat story in that three years ago they came to know Christ through some other neighbors who reached out to them. Now they have a passion to reach their neighbors. It has been very inspiring and eye-opening to learn that all this time we could have had an impact in our other neighbors lives by getting to know them and serving them, but we have not put enough effort into it. Now, we are hoping to join with the Floyds to think of ongoing creative ways to get to know everyone on our street and possibly invite them to church or share Christ with them.

These pictures are at the Floyds where Santa stopped by to visit with neighborhood kiddos. Caleb told santa his Christmas would be even better if he got some batman toys and an airplane. :) But really, he wasn't that impressed with santa. He had more fun playing with the other kids, constantly ringing the Floyd's doorbell :) and decorating and eating cookies.

That is really exciting and I can't wait to hear more about it! Caleb definitely looks unsure about Santa. Macy will have her first visit coming up this Saturday and I am interested to see how it goes.
