Christmas Gifts to Remember - Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was a wonderful time for us. We went to a very early candlelight service at OPUMC, lovely with the candles even at a little after 3:00 p.m. in the afternoon! We then prepared for Santa by setting AA's red picnic table with her homemade gingerbread cookies, milk, a note to Santa, a family photo and the Bible verse.We decided to open the gifts from my two sisters that evening, lots of great things from Auntie-M including a beautiful prayer plate. And AA loves her new camcorder/camera from Aunt-T and Uncle George!

We received a winter white centerpiece from my Mom (L.L. Bean) which was on our table for a couple of weeks. Then the week before Christmas, from brother Ben, a gorgeous Christmas centerpiece with fresh flowers arrived. A stunning arrangement that brightened up our Christmas decorations. We decided to share the beautiful centerpiece with daughter Leaa's household, to add to their festivities. 

Merry Christmas...... many more posts to follow to catch up on all the joy!
Happy New Year 2013!
