Christmas Eve

For years, we have had a quiet, roast beef dinner by candle light on Christmas Eve... then off to church for the wonder of celebrating the birth of our Saviour in the sweet, quiet of the Eve of Christmas. But with the addition of in-law families and the sharing of time, we have deleted our Christmas Eve tradition to allow room for new traditions for our kids.

This year, Paul and Shawna found themselves at home, so called last minute to ask if we could come over for a roast beef dinnner.....so we bundled up and trekked over. Since Jordan was working, Lindsey joined us, too. It was quiet and relaxing, just the way Christmas Eve should be....we ended up not going to church....the timing was off but we rejoiced in our hearts.

We came home and went for a quick walk in the crisp night...I do love snow at Christmas!
