Our celebration tonight

We had a great time today at our advent celebration family time.  Susan and Linda and Dad and I were here.  Was anyone else with us today? 

The DVD was so good.  Louie is a great preacher.  He told us about the Christmas Story from Luke, chapter 2, in a way I've never heard it before.  If you didn't get a chance to see it today, you could go to google and google it in and watch it on the internet anytime. 

We ate dinner first.  I made meatloaf with a recipe from my cook book I've been having so much fun with.  Also some creamed potatoes with peas, and a raspberry salad.  Susan brought cookies.  Linda brought rolls and carrots.  Everything was so delicious. 

Then we watched the movie "Faith Like Potatoes".  It was quite good, too. 

Next week we will have our final celebration.  This one will be "The Star of Bethlehem".  Very appropriate for after the birth of Christ.  It is a documentary on the Star.  Very interesting.  You can find that on the internet, too. 

Linda and Dad are at the airport right now picking up Jade and Jeremy.  It will be so good to see them.  I am sick, so Dad wouldn't let me go.  It is too cold outside - only 4 degrees!  Brrrr.  I'm on my way to bed.  G'nite everyone.  Sweet dreams.

Oh - and be sure we keep praying for Tammy and Terry.  And Karen texted Chuck to tell him she couldn't talk 'cuz she's sick, too.  Please pray for her.  She will be going to Bev's for Christmas if she can feel good.  The roads are very nasty to get here for Christmas.  And she only gets tomorrow afternoon (Christmas Eve) until Christmas day at 5:00 off.  Not enough time to come here, anyway.  I'm so thankful that Bev has invited to her join them.  So nice of you, Bev!

I really want to see that Christmas DVD, but unfortunately it's not on youtube or netflix. Boohoo. We were going to watch it last year at Kay's, remember? But we never did for some good reason. I liove that Faith movie - good one. Anyhoo, sounds like a good time and good food and good company!
