Day 23
While I was cleaning house and baking today,
Olivia decided to take some pictures around the house.
I love seeing things from her perspective.
In the evening some friends came over
and we had a lovely fire,
read the Christmas story,
watched The Polar Express
while drinking hot chocolate
(the grown-up's laced with coffee. Delicious! My new favorite.)
and eating gingerbread still warm from the oven
and topped with freshly whipped cream.
After that, the kids played upstairs
while the grown-up's played a few round of
"catch phrase."
It's wonderful to share the company of sweet friends
and enjoy good food and share lots of laughs.
It makes Christmas.
I have to wonder what each of us will remember from this night.
