Oh my gosh my dreams have come true! It's still snowing.....I guess we've broken that all time record....Yippee....I think?! But it really is beautiful. Hauge's tell your mom that the little Christmas trees outside my patio door are totally covered now! When she shows her pictures she can add that to her story.
Well the garbage truck was able to find my can even though it was clothed in snow!! Things are looking up for a great day! Today the excitement and merrymaking begins! I get to stretch mine out all the way till the 9th of Jan. That way I get to rest a little between events.
Yesterday I cleaned and readied the house for the progressive dinner (It's really an all day event....we just stretch dinner out, with two hours at each house). The progressive starts at 11 a.m. and end at my house for dessert (Annies Chocolate fountain) at 6 p.m. and then Santa arrives at 7 p.m. So we really stre.....tch out dinner. I think I'm ready for that (check) I've all the gifts wrapped (check) arranged for Santa to come a day late (check) what did I forget?
Today I will start the celebrations at church this afternoon. Doing the childrens service that is preceded with their program. Annie and family will be there as well as Doug's parents, Matt and Carol. Then we will all proceed to Annie's for dinner and then the best part, as far as Matthew's concerned, will be opening presents. Matthew already counted how many packages under his tree for him....and under my tree as well. Five year olds are in their glory at this time of the year. All the wonder and awe, excitement and joy! I have to admit I'm kinda like a five-year old at this time of the year too! Christmas and all the festivities surrounding it are my favorite time of the year. All the love is truely felt!
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas. May you feel the love of God surround and fill you. Love and prayers, m
