Welcome To Publishers Corner,
Merry Christmas from my family to yours. I am wishing for peace, kindness, and tons of fun for your family over the holiday. What do you have planed for the next few days? There are tons of things to do over the next few days between holiday dinners to winter break activities at various businesses around town. Be sure to check out the calendar for some of the fun and Facebook for more fun!
Our holiday will consist of having a candlelight service at Redeemer with my in-laws. We love this part of the holiday as we get a little one on one with Grandma and Grandpa. Kaity LOVES this. She dresses up like a princess, sings and at the quiet times during the service occasionally says cute things A couple years ago as the church fell silent for a prayer to Jesus after the Pastor talked about Christmas being Jesus' birthday she said "Are we going to sing Happy Birthday now?" Loud enough for a few rows around us to hear and begin to chuckle.
We have dinner before the service and dessert after. It makes for a great time to just have time to enjoy family.
After dessert we open a couple gifts and read a book (you can guess which one) have some cocoa while we read then go to bed.
Like magic Santa comes and we rise early on Christmas morn' to a house full of gifts from Santa. After a bit of dust (or wrapping paper) settles we begin prep for Christmas Dinner. Then my parents arrive for brunch and we exchange gifts with them. By then the rest of the family is arriving for Christmas Dinner. Sister in laws, Brother in laws, Grandparents, nieces, etc all arrive and we get to enjoy one anothers company and enjoy Christmas with everyone together.
Don't forget to checkout Facebook too for other events.
The Preschool & Kids Activities Fair is coming January 26th. The Summer Camp Fair will be in March. I'm looking at doing a Back To School fair next year too.
