And how was your Christmas??

Ours was blessed - at least that's the word that first comes to mind. I really enjoyed the Christmas Eve candle light service at our church. It really put me into the mood to worship the reason for the season rather than being concerned about the hustle and bustle of getting here and there.

Christmas morning was nice and relaxed. We only bought the kids 3 presents each plus their stockings. It was a nice way to do things. Nobody was overwhelmed and enjoyment was had by everybody with what they did get.

We went to our regular Sunday morning service on Christmas day and it was wonderful to spend the morning with our family. I truly consider our church family our family. I see them more often than my own family and if I were ever in a bind or needed something people in that family would be first on my list of people to call before my blood relatives.

It has been a nice relaxing few days. My goal for the evening is to get Christmas put away until next year. Not sure it will actually happen today but I have hope that by tomorrow night things will be back to normal looking in the house.

The kids are outside playing with the neighbor and showing each other what they got for Christmas and dh is playing games online. I think it's a good time for a short nap for me before getting to work.

Hope the Christmas season was all you hoped it to be.
