CHRISTMAS EVE GREETINGS

 Christmas Eve greetings. Our morning broke with beautiful blue skies and brilliant sunshine. Our temperatures will be near 70 today. I wish we had colder temps, I want to have a fire and hot chocolate. The cold will be returning next week. At least the kiddos can get outside with their new bikes, or skateboards or other outdoor toys. 

I set up our Christmas Eve table last night. I still need to tweak a few things, but I think it's looking nice. We always have spaghetti, it's the one meal everyone likes, lol. I have picky children. Heck, I'm picky. 


I have a cute story to tell you. Years ago my sweet, favorite aunt called my dad all excited and upset. She had been watching the news and alerted dad that an unidentified flying object had been sighted over Atlanta. She was freaking out, asking what she should do. Dad said, "Nell, that's Santa" to which she sheepishly replied, "Oh!". I love that story. She was such a dear but her fears got the best of her.

I hope you have a lovely Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. I'm just enjoying a nice quiet day.

    Very pretty table. Great fun too with the kiddos on their bikes! One year it was so warm on Christmas we hung bedding outside. Was crazy how warm it was. But it was fun too. A change. But yeah, I'm with you on the hot chocolate. Hope you get some either way.
