The last few days we've been helping out with a production of Bethlehem. There is a blog about it. Bethlehem is very enjoyable. This year Jeff is a coppersmith, Lila a potter, Clarence a crafter of bracelets, Peterman a wood carver, Whacki a cider girl, Googs a shepherd girl or the coppersmith's helper, I am a candle woman, Dibs is Joseph. It's a family thing!
We're in a Community Christmas Choir--Jeff, Lila, Dibs and I. We had our performance on Sunday. I LOVE the choir. We practice on Saturday mornings from 7 'til 8:30, starting in October. Tomorrow night we are going to be the choir for St. Mary's Episcopal Church's 8 pm version of midnight Mass. It also is enjoyable. When we're at the Mass, the children who are at home will put together a Gingerbread House, and probably start watching a Christmas movie.
I love Christmas! It's especially nice when things seem to fall into place! Lila and the kids began making Christmas crescents (It's a cinnamon roll twisted to the shape of a crescent/wreath.) YUMMMMMM! We hand these out to as many people as we can. Sometimes we don't get them all handed out until AFTER Christmas.
I'm so happy that of the 5 packages I've sent, 4 reached the correct destination TODAY. # 5 will probably arrive the 26th.
Merry Christmas to ALLLLLL!!!

I love your blog too-- don't wait for pictures, just keep blogging! (Maybe i should take my own advice!)
I wish I had seen this before today! We were looking for someplace to go to Mass on Christmas Eve! And I agree--I love your blog with or without pics. Merry Christmas!! XOXO
I am looking forward to seeing photos of your family's part in the Bethlehem Christmas. However, this will involve photos, so don't worry about hurrying with it--just wanted to let you know that I will be happy to view them whenever that may work out to be.
