Almost there . . .

Our crib's been blessed, the shopping's done, the presents wrapped and we're just off to have a drink with our neighbours followed by an hour's peace and quiet before we go to Midnight Mass, so there's only one thing left to do . . .

I wish you all a very Happy, Holy and Blessed Christmas.

Christmas morn ...

The first thing we do when we get back from Midnight Mass is to place the infant Jesus carefully in our crib at home. Mark is generally the one to do this as he always remembers amidst all the chatter and excitement going on when we arrive home and goes straight to the place where the figure is kept until the 'big day'!

A Blessed and Happy Christmas to everyone!
