Christmas joy. It's different for everyone. Some of us feel joy at the sounds and sights of the holiday. Others feel joy over good news or a good report that came during this time of year. There are those that have joy due to a special gift waiting under their tree. Quite a few get joy from helping those less fortunate. Many feel joy because they personally know the One whose birth we celebrate! What gives you joy at Christmas?
I got these two ornaments last year at Cracker Barrel. The rusty JOY is a favorite. Call me a hick, but I like Cracker Barrel's "store goods."

Hi Janean
Your blog is so beautiful! Thanks so much for stopping by mine and the lovely comment. Looks like we both have JOY on our minds this season! :)
If you're a hick for shopping at Cracker Barrel than I guess I am in good company! We were there this afternoon and did our grandson's Christmas shopping done! I love their quirky, fun goodies!
Nean! these are the cutest ornaments :) I will have to remember the Cracker Barrel!
My family opening all the gifts I bought for them. Church on Christmas Eve is the best joy!
Everyone health and safety.
We have alot of Joy around here, it's my oldest daughter's middle name so we have quite a few things that say it :-) My youngest daughter's middle name is Hope, so we see that alot too. I like your Joy ornaments. We don't have any Cracker Barrels around here, but I've been to a few while traveling, and they're wonderful.
Blessings,
Marcia
