December 24th

Can you believe that it is Christmas Eve? Where has all the time gone? Lucy is so excited about Santa coming tonight! We baked cookies this morning and then decorated them. It was a lot of fun, as you can tell. . .






We went to Weaverville UMC tonight for their Christmas Eve service. Salem UMC only has an 11 PM service and I knew there was no way that Lucy would be awake for that. It was a nice service but the best part was being able to attend church together simply as a family. I can't think of any time since Lucy was born where we have just been able to sit together and worship as a family. . . no one had to play, no one had to preach. . . we almost didn't know what to do with ourselves! ;)

Lucy and Daddy before we went to church


We told Zoey goodbye tonight. She has been watching Lucy carefully and apparently today, she called to tell Santa that Lucy has been good. She'll be gone tomorrow, back to the North Pole to help Santa until next year!


So the cookies and milk are by the tree, with some carrots for the reindeer. We are ready for Santa's arrival!


Within the realms of all this excitement, here's a little reminder from Lucy of what this season truly is about:



Merry Christmas to all!!!!!
