Christmas church service

Sunday, December 21st

Merry Christmas!! It was a wonderful church service at Desperation Church as usual. Santa greeted us at the door as he always does but this time dressed in his suit. Stryker's Sunday school class sang at the beginning of the service. After church, we spent time with Mamo at the nursing home before heading to Coco's favorite lunch spot in Cullman - All Steak. We had a wonderful morning.
