Beautiful music in celebration of Christ's birth



Singing for our Sunday School Christmas program at church.

 Stefanie watched Benjamin so Esther and I could ice skate on the Boston Common.


Esther and I having a great time on the "Frog Pond."
 
We both agreed that we felt "young" again! :)
It was so fun to be in Boston on Christmas Eve.
It was a blessing to discover a friend of ours passing out Christmas tracts from our church while we were down there.
 
 
Benjamin liked the Christmas tree ornament that I gave him. 
 
 
  Camusos with Benjamin
 
 We celebrated Christmas Eve with my sister, Shera's, family.
Great homemade pasta sauce with meatballs for dinner and gluten free pasta for me. My lucky day!
 
 
Justus and April in their hideout! So cute!
 
 
April loves her new stroller!
 
 
Benjamin's First Christmas Morn!
 
Esther and Joe had to fly out Christmas day. Stefanie had to work and Denis stayed in New Hampshire with the Camusos. We enjoyed a quiet Christmas dinner with my parents at our apartment.
 
 
 
Josh and Aleta 
 
   I am thankful for a wonderful Christmas with my husband and family.
 
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men." Luke 2:14

Who is the Anonymous poster? :)

I LOVED seeing the pictures! I hadn't seen too many, nor heard much reliving (especially since Mother dear is hoarse ;))

Looks like an awesome time had by all...wish I were there...but, by the time you un-deck the halls, I probably will be there!!!

P.S. Where was the last pic of you and Josh taken? Looks like upstairs church foyer, but wrong colors - maybe painted?

Love you!
Thanks for posting!

I figured Esther was the Anonymous!!:-) The last pic was actually at Symphony Hall, but was taken with Josh's cell phone which seems to give it a lovely yelowl glow! :-) It does look like the upstairs foyer at church though. Must be same time period or something. Anyhow a happy new year to all! I'm at the Gospel Hall waiting to ring, sing or pray in the New Year! :-) And how!:-)
