The Christmas Season has officially began here at Shiloh.  The Christmas trees are decorated.  Both of them.  The Nativity Sets are on display.  All four of them.  The Village Scene is once again delighting children, with real lights shining forth from little windows, and snow everywhere.  A large vase full of poinsettias adds color to a corner of our hutch.  The stair banister is adorned with red bows.  Our largest (floor) giraffe is wearing his Christmas bow. And the Christmas dishes are once again in use.  With a five foot tree in the library and a seven and a half foot tree in the dining room, it takes four days to decorate Shiloh.  Anticipation runs high as we all know our annual Shiloh Family Christmas Party is just around the corner.  Central to everything is the One Whose birthday we will be celebrating.  He is the One Whom we love, honor, serve, and adore every day of the year, not just at Christmas time.
