Merry Christmas (Eve)!


It's Christmas Eve, and Whistle has visions of sugar plums dancing in his head (or at least he might, if only he knew of sugar plums). Hugger and Teenager are building with Magnetix on the floor, while It's a Wonderful Life shows on the TV. Father is nearby. Earlier tonight, we had our traditional supper of meat/cheese/crackers, cheese balls, other snacks, and cookies. This year, we shared it with 'Aunt Marjory,' and we watched the Amazing Grace DVD.

Over the weekend, all the married kids were home, and we celebrated Christmas together on Saturday evening, and attended church services together on Sunday morning. What a blessing that was! Six children, 3 spouses, four precious granddaughters, and Victor and Elaine (sister and brother-in-law) and two of their sons, also! The weekend was great fun, and in comparison, tonight and tomorrow will be quieter.

All is good. It's. All. Wonderful.

And His name shall be called, Wonderful, Counselor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.

Have a blessed day with your family and friends.
