"Glory to God in the highest,
and peace to his people on earth."
(Luke 2:14)

And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch of their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them,
"Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord."
(Luke 2:8-11)

(( Merry Christmas!))

Thanks, dear Dee. Because of the grandboys, we will attend early Children's Mass and then entertain 'the troops'! We too are expecting rain, hopefully not freezing since we light luminaries at dusk (our Garden Club yearly fundraiser)! Wishing you a most Blessed Christmas and beautiful New Year!
Thanks for all of your kind comments over the year, and your blogging friendship.
Have a wonderful time celebrating with family, and friends.

And let's hope the North Pole reception committee cleans up afterward.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year my friend!

Happy New Year, Cameron ... it seems that this past one has been huge for many. Do hope this year rings in the health, happiness and hope for beautiful tomorrows.
Such a busy time for families, dear Marmee, especially for someone like you that doesn't miss a beat :) May the New Year surround us all in peace, health and happiness!
Thank you, dear Nutty, and may I extend the same beautiful wishes to you and your dear family. Will look forward to the tea house completion and more photos of you in your snuggies and wellies :)

I'm with you BIG TIME, Marnie! Where did the year go, dear blogging friend? Wishing you the happiest of New Years also. I'm in a huge time & tech warp, wondering when I can get back to blogging!
And I so enjoy your images also, Kate, that look especially awesome on my new iMac :) Happy New Year!
