Hi,
I'm sorry I haven't been writing lately. I'm trying to spend more time with Beth in the evenings, and when Chuck hollers out to wherever I might be, "You wanna watch a Christmas movie?" Of course I'm going to say yes.
We've been to the movies twice.
Walked around our little town.
Did some Christmas shopping.
Looked at Christmas lights.
And went to our church's Christmas concert.
It's been a fun week that went by way too fast!
The fountain decorated downtown
Trying to get a picture of us in front of our town's Christmas tree. It was pouring rain and windy, and the phone kept slipping out of my hand!
We used a haze machine this year during the concert.
It was phenomenal as usual.
The music, the lights, even the drama.
You can watch it here.
Even just the first minute. You won't be disappointed!
Oh! And Adelaide turned two! (There are three candles because one is for good luck.) We weren't able to be there for her birthday this year but Diana sent lots of pictures and videos.
The next few days will be last minute prep for Christmas. I still have some wrapping to do, plus I'm working a half day on Monday. Unfortunately Chuck only has Christmas Day off this year. But I'm thankful he has it off!
Sharaya and Ally will come over Christmas Eve and we'll video chat with Diana, Peter and Adelaide so Ally and Adelaide can open their Christmas Eve jammies. (Ally has been sick the last week or so and has missed a lot of school but Sharaya says she's starting to feel better.) Then Christmas morning we'll all be at our own homes, then Sharaya and Ally will come over in the afternoon and we'll have Christmas with them. Diana and Peter will go to his parents in the afternoon. (D&P live in Pennsylvania and his parents are in New Jersey. We're in Seattle.)
Have you finished prepping for Christmas? Or for Hanukkah or Kwanza if you celebrate those? I pray this has been a peaceful time for you.

Oh those pictures on the rainy night at the Christmas tree, such joy. You sure have been doing some fun things, made me smile. :). Merry Christmas!!!
Cracking up at the selfies! Happy birthday to Sweet Adelaide. Merry Christmas !
Adelaide is absolutely adorable!! Happy birthday to her!! I enjoyed your photos, even the selfies in the rain! I'm ready except for food prep for Christmas dinner. That is easy, though. Nice that your hubby has the day off! Wishing you and yours a blessed day!!
Those are some beautiful Christmas light decorations. No one really does Kwanza anymore, it was a made-up pretend holiday (like Juneteenth and the pervert's Pride Month) to make lefties feel better about the fact that they have no respect for traditional holidays
