Christmas Eve

We had a pretty good Christmas Eve.

I went to the gym, we had some presents arrive that we had sent, we each opened one present, and we went to a Christmas Eve service at Eagle Christian Church.

The gym went pretty well. I tested myself and did OK with the pushups and situps. I was a little off on my time with the run, but that may have been because I was watching ESPN.

I ordered Chris some flowers for Christmas and they were delivered today. They did a really nice job with the arrangement of roses and then put in some Christmas kinds of decorations.

The Christmas Eve service was very nice although we were a little late getting there due to a fairly heavy snowfall. We have been getting snow off and on for the last several days and so we will have a white Christmas this year.

The presents that we opened were from family. The boys opened two small boxes from their great-grandparents and they were both lighted monoculars. Very cool. They were looking across the house with them. Chris and I opened presents from our family in MN. They were pure maple syrup and homemade raspberry jam. Needless to say, we are very much looking forward to breakfast.

We hope that you all have a Merry Christmas and remember what we are really celebrating in the gift of Christ.
