Christmas '09

Prime rib, 70 + people, Good times.

Christmas Brunch

Ella has decided that she really likes my dad

If he's in the room talking she is looking at him intently listening to what he has to say, or waiting for him to look at her so she can grin at him.

Christmas day we usually have a similar schedule as Thanksgiving. Brunch and then dinner, in between people go do whatever with their families and some of us spend the day setting up for the dinner.

Candlelight Service '09

The Candlelight service on Christmas Eve usually starts out with the nativity play done by the younger ones.

Even though Yeshua wasn't really born this time of year. It's most likely that he was born during Sukkot, so this really would have been the time of his conception.

Aidan was supposed to be one of the sheep, but he would have none of it.

Later some special dance presentations

my little girl, errr...um.

singing carols in candlelight

and then a dessert potluck!
