Merry Christmas 2012

OK, I’m bad.  I pilfered this picture from a Facebook post.

It’s Christmas morning and despite missing our Girls and their families, we’re feeling pretty good about it.  The is actually our 1st Christmas being homeless.  Last year we returned to Connecticut for Christmas and left in a hurry to escape the cold.

We’ve found a very nice Christian Community at Christ Lutheran Church in Georgetown.  They have made us feel very welcome as we joined them in worship and fellowship.

Last evening {Christmas Eve} we attended the 4:00 pm service which featured what else, The Children's Christmas Pageant!   It was quite grand starting with a preschool choir, a youngster’s choir ending with a wonderful representation of the Christmas Story.  There was a cast of 20, stuck a heart string here.

Sorry if you missed the local production of this.  It was playing at a Venue near you!

 

We awoke this morning to a wild windstorm with rain and hail as a weather front moved through.  Temperatures will drop to the high 20’s this evening.  This weather is moving East and will provide TV interest as I watch the New York CBS feed.

He followed me home, can we keep him?

No, Santa needs all his reindeer this year, set him free to multiply!DSCN1735

This is Zeus, compare him to the front of my truck in the backround.  Anne-Marie took him for a short walk.  Why short?  Well, she found out that he was taking her for a walk.  If you dance with him, he leads!

DSCN1736 We will spend most of the day inside.  Anne-Marie is fixing us a Turkey Dinner and she made a Lemon Sponge Pie yesterday.  This was one my Mom’s specialties, if you like Lemon it is great!

Me?  I’m engrossed with Lone Star: A History of Texas and the Texans  by T.R. Fehrenbach  It’s kind of deep, I’m enjoying the mental exercise of learning the history of this area.

Doctor on Friday, after that we will be better able to schedule 2013.
