Christmas Eve.

Our Christmas Eve started early in the afternoon,

once my dh had arrived home from picking up

some packages from the Post Office. He had the

day off and we planned to be home all day but we

got a notice that some unexpected but lovely

gifts were waiting for us to be picked up. 

So off he drove into town. Thankfully, the Post Office

was nice and quiet and he was soon back home.

We finished wrapping gifts, put the fire on and poured

some wine to share, with yummy cookies on the side.

Outside it was overcast and very frosty but not too

cold. Just enough to make it Christmasy everywhere.

We found a great place to display our Christmas 

cards on the wide windowsill in our Great Room.

After dinner, we watched a few Christmas shows,

then it was time to head off to sleep. Soon, old

St. Nick would be visiting our house and we were

thankful everything was ready so we could sleep!
