December 19, 2010. San Antonio, Tx. The Sunday Before Christmas.

My Mother would be so pleased.  Sarah and Abigail acolytes at church and Allison and Samantha angels in the Christmas pageant, and all four doing their part so well.   We all four met at church along with the children and enjoyed the singing and the service, listening to the same words and singing the same carols from the time of my youth.

Bonnie and Wade invited us to brunch right after church,  along with six other friends and their children for a total of ten adults and eleven children.  I appreciated them inviting us along with David and Suzanne, especially because I love  their lovely old home.  It was especially beautiful decorated for Christmas.  The food was excellent, all made by Bonnie which was impressive.  Then home to David and Suzanne's for a relaxing afternoon, napping and watching football.

We left Ken at home, while the seven of us went to an Open House at some friend's home.  Thirty minutes of chatting and we were gone.  After we ordered Chinese food from the car, we drove around to see the Christmas lights.  Finally home for dinner and watching a football game prior to returning to the River Walk at half time.

It was a lovely day being with the girls and Suzanne and David for the Sunday before Christmas.   Lovely spirit in the air.
