Before we get to the video, we wanted to let you all know a little bit about the inspiration that led to the theme for this year's video.
Those who know us personally know that 2012 has been a year of challenges for our family. We are extremely blessed and incredibly thankful to God for our health, our jobs, our family and friends. And we do not take it for granted! And it is the challenges in life that remind us just how blessed we truly are.
We were approached by a family member about how excited they were to see what we would come up with for Christmas this year. We reluctantly told them that we probably would not do a video this year. We joked that 2012 has drained the life out of us, and we felt like zombies. It's hard to find creative inspiration when you feel like a zombie. And then...it hit us.
We immediately began discussing an idea, and when we called up our great friend Tyler Tarver he jumped at the opportunity to help us throw our last-minute Christmas video together. We could have never done this without him.
Without further adieu, here is our bizarre Christmas video. We think it is a great compliment to our bizarre 2012 where we learned how important it is to be able to laugh at yourself and continue smiling through the challenging times.

We love our family and our friends, and we really hope this video makes you smile!!
And as much as we like to have fun with our family and we enjoy this fun little tradition each year, we never want to lose sight of the true purpose of the celebrating this time of year.
"Who can add to Christmas? The perfect motive is that God so loved the world.
The perfect gift is that He gave His only Son. The only requirement is to believe in Him.
The reward of faith is that you shall have everlasting life."
-Corrie Ten Boom
Best wishes to you all this Christmas!
The Goss Family
