Day 116-December 25, 2012

     Christmas!  I squealed with delight when I found an ultrasound pic and a bow on the fridg.  E'lora will be a big sister in July.  

We had a lovely rainy day here at home, Colin, Cora, Trev, E'lora, Grampa, and I.  Grampa and I took E'lora for a swing and morning walk during an early morning break in the rain.  After our strata brunch and opening fest, Colin and Trev went for a round of disc golf, a favorite hobby of their's.  Cora and I rolled out two trays of cherry winks, Tutu's traditional cookie at Christmas.  

I got Fred a toy BMW RS for ALL of his grandkids, present and yet to come.  It put a smile on his face.  

E'lora loves her magna doodle and Trevor his computer keyboard input.  I have cozy fur slippers from Fred.  Colin picked out a beautiful beaded necklace for me too.  I read aloud "A Christmas Carol" while Trev and Colin were playing a round of Wii golf.  The prime rib roast turned out great, as did the smashed potatoes made following Martha Stewart's directions using a ricer.  

Joy to the World was my decorating theme of our table, this was a simple Christmas reminding us all of the gift of God's Son, Jesus.
