It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Some random photos of Christmas cheer...!

 

Come, All Ye Shepherds

Here are a few photos from our traditional Christmas Eve "shepherds' dinner."

This year the menu included roast beef, flatbread, mozzarella cheese, olives, grapes, salad, and grape juice.  It was really good.

And here are the "shepherds"...

Deck the Halls

Here are some photos of the annual "gingerbread" house decorating.  Some festive creations from...

Blowin'

Unbelievably, Daniel is 13!  Where did the time go?

He was excited to open a few presents...

... and show off the stylin' new braces...

... and partake of the traditional Birthday Donuts.  Krispy Kreme, of course.

Happy birthday, Daniel!
