Christmas Eve 2010

Christmas Eve ... Candlelight Christmas Eve Service at church,

lots of baking to prepare for a dessert buffet with friends tomorrow,

candlelight dinner,

and preparing for Santa - which included saying good-bye once again to our elf which, brought lots of unexpected tears.

Now the kids are all snug in their beds, the house is quiet and still, and the glow of our Christmas tree is mesmerizing. Tonight I am enjoying soaking in all the sights and sounds around our home which remind me Christmas is tomorrow morning.

"Silent Night
Holy Night
All is calm
All is bright"
