Our 6th and final celebration!

This documentary was so good.  It pointed out lots of things from Matthew 2 that I hadn't realized was even there.  9 clues that the Star of Bethlehem was a real event!  Very interesting.  Very inspiring.  Very informative. 

We had dinner first.  I made chili dogs from a recipe in my trusty cook book.  Linda brought the potato chips (which I forgot to put out, so they didn't get eaten.  Sorry, Linda), and Susan brought orange jello.  We finished off the pie from our Christmas dinner.  Susan, Linda, Jeremy, Dad and I were here.  It was good to see Jeremy show up. 

Karen called while we were eating and cleaning up.  She sounds so sick. 

We prayed for Janet for her birthday.  And all the rest of the Eve's on the planet, too!

Then Jeremy went to see what his friends are doing, and Dad went downstairs to watch football, and Susan, Linda and I watched a movie.

Susan had to be home by 7:00 so Jean could go to mass, and Linda had to go, too, since Dad gave them a ride home.  Jeremy took the car they came in.

If you did not get a chance to watch these DVD's, I highly recomment that you try to watch them sometime when ever you can.  They surely are worth the time you spend with them.  We all did enjoy this time together with each other - and with you!  This was our last one.

This was such a neat way to celebrate Advent and Christmas. Thank you Mom, for all of the effort, planning, cooking, cleaning, decorating & praying you did for this wonderful series. I really enjoyed all of them, and I know Susan enjoyed the ones she attended.

I watched "The Star of Bethlehem" today. Mom sent it to me since she knew I wanted to see it and couldn't find it on YouTube. It was amazing. Mind-blowing to think that God planned the Universe to coincide with the birth and death of Jesus. Wow! I loved it and hope to watch it again next year!

I watched the "12 Words of Christmas" 2 days ago, and then sent it to Debbie. She is sending me the "Star". I enjoyed the whole series. Louis has a way of putting it all into perspective. I love the story of Jesus being born.
