The Twenty-Four Days Before Christmas – Day 16

Well, we are over half way there and we have managed to find some small enjoyable thing to do each day. Today was easy – we had our Christmas program at church. The kids really look forward to doing it each year and so do I – until around November when I realize how much work we need and how few kids I have to work with. But, it is always ok, and the kids always enjoy. I want them to have this every year. 
First I have a picture of my youngest grandchild – Jakob. He came to see the program today along with big brother, Luke.

Baby Jesus was my next youngest grandson – Finn. He did a great job – slept in the manger the entire program.

The kids did a pretty good job considering how few of them there were and Sarah even sang a solo. She was so happy. That is what I like about a small church – everybody gets a chance. But, I am definitely glad it is over. I usually say about this time of year that I will never do it again. But, I always do. 
Reagan was the Angel of the Lord and is also Finn’s big sister.

The Twenty-Four Days Before Christmas – Day 15

Today our special thing was to take jars of candy to the employees at McDonald’s. We go through the drive-through there at least once a week for something — sometimes just a diet coke or maybe an ice cream for the kids. They are always so nice and friendly to us and will go out of their way to get us something or sometimes adding extra barbecue sauce for Sarah, because they know how much she loves it. So, we bought some candy and filled jars and took it in to them this evening. They were so nice — hugging the girls and thanking them. Sarah was trying to linger, but I managed to get her out without buying her a chicken sandwich.
