Christmas Eve and all

And suddenly, it was Christmas Eve. We had Little Grandma and Papa here... and it was lovely to not travel (for the first time in my entire life!).

There was yard work (what? bah humbug!)...
There was anticipation...
There was jumping and man-handling and pulling up and screaming...
There was kindle-reading and Charlie Brown Christmas watching...
There was happy birthday Jesus singing...
There were snow monster caves...
There was Santa putting-togethering...
Two bald guys on the carpet...
And a very merry christmas eve had by all! Especially after watching Christmas Vacation!
O holy night! The stars are brightly shining, It is the night of our dear Saviour's birth. Long lay the world in sin and error pining, 'Til He appear'd and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn. Fall on your knees! O hear the angel voices! O night divine, O night when Christ was born; O night divine, O night, O night Divine.
