Today we are preparing for our family Christmas Eve meal. We love all of our extended family get together but there is something special about spending Christmas just the four of us. The only time we leave the house on Christmas Eve is to go to church that night and then drive around and look at Christmas lights.
I worked on the menu this week with the kids and we have come up with a pretty big spread....
Ham
Turkey
Chicken & Dumplings
Dressing
Mashed Potatoes
Jello Salad
Seven Layer Salad
Green Bean Casserole
Deviled Eggs
Sweet Potato Pie
All the cookies, candies, and other sweets we made this week.
I love making memories with my kids and hope these are the things they will remember when they are grown. Most of my childhood memories are the special things we did at the holidays not what toy I got.
They are calling for snow on Christmas and I just say bring it on because we are set for a few days!!!
Luke 2:11-14
"For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.”
And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: “Glory to God in the highest, And on earth peace, goodwill toward men!”
