Christmas 2008 has come and gone and I am proud to say we survived it!
The kids love all the fun stuff we do during the Christmas season, but their favorite thing is Christmas Eve and Christmas Day! (Who's isn't?)On Christmas Eve we always attend the Christmas Eve Candlelight service. This has always been my favorite part of Christmas- seeing old friends, listening to the Christmas story, and singing Silent Night by candlelight. I love watching my kids, Janice's and Jim's kids see the magic of that simple candle in the dark as we sing.
After church, as always we raced home to put out reindeer food, read Twas the Night Before Christmas and put out Cookies and milk for Santa.
After the kids go to bed, Dennis and I settle down and watch Holiday Inn. It is the last quiet moment we have before the chaos begins!

Dennis and the kids on Christmas Eve.
After spending the rest of the day with my family, we made it home. We were too full, wondered where all the new stuff was going to go and Molly declared it the best Christmas ever! (She says that every year) And she's right.
