Project 365: Day 359 - December 24

The kids and I stayed home all day today, while David drove down to North Carolina to visit his grandmother. We got all of our presents wrapped and the food made for dinner, and then we headed to church for the candlelight service. The service was beautiful and ended just in time. Had we had to stand there any longer with burning candles I'm not sure the boy could look forward to finding anything good in his stocking!

After the service we drove by the garish lighted house and noted that we had just 5 hours, 13 minutes and 3 seconds left in the day!

David made it home in time to grab a bite to eat before reading The Night Before Christmas to the kids.

Santa always gets a plate of homemade goodies when he comes. Last year he got egg nog.

This year he gets milk, but he'll have to fetch it himself.
