Christmas Eve day started with church.
On this day I sang with the worship team.
On this day we sang my favorite Christmas song,
O Holy Night.
Singing this song with Paul and Merle
is a highlight every year!!
I'm so moved by the beauty of the words in this song.
Also on this day
my grandchildren participated in the service.
Aidan reading scripture.
Paityn reading scripture.
Aidan participating in a skit....
reciting all his lines by memory!

Noah at the manger.
Zoe sitting on the floor next to him.
Paityn is Mary.
It was all so sweet and filled with a great message.
My heart is full!!
On this day we went to see Christmas lights.
The lights at this residence is always on our favorites list!
The lights in this town has been a favorite my whole life!
Manheim,
you never disappoint.
Krasley Christmas light show
is our very favorite!
On this Christmas Eve night
there were many cars
filled with folks who also enjoy this show!
On this Christmas Eve night
it drizzled, snowed, rained.
Didn't keep us from enjoying it!
Another favorite neighborhood
on this Christmas Eve.
And now we are home,
kids are snuggled in their beds ☺
waiting for you know who!
A few more things for me to do then I will head for bed too.
A very Merry Christmas to you
from us...
Dale, Ellen, and me!

Doris, the lights are fantastic! Thank you so much for showing them to us. How sweet to have all your grandchildren participating in the church service -- even Noah! (Having met him, I have a special place in my heart for that guy!) Hope you had a wonderful Christmas.
