Christmas celebrations began the first Sunday of Advent. During that time we have celebrated St. Nick's Day (Dec.6) with our children and grandchild. :) The usual baking and decorating happened. On December 16th we had Christmas Dinner with Lisa, Mike and Annika before they left two days later for Vancouver and Australia.
December 25th we had the privilege of having Glenda and Bill join us for our morning brunch. We had a yummy feast and celebrative times.
Because we had no set family plans during the usual Christmas celebration time, i worked a few shifts at "The Birches" long term care home located in Musquodoboit Harbour just twenty minutes from our home.
We have had the privilege of attending Handel's Messiah by the Nova Scotia Symphony, reading some books like The Story of the other Wise Man by Henry Van Dyke., still reading Best Christmas Pageant Ever again, attending our church Christmas Eve service, volunteering with Feed Nova Scotia, going for many walks with Stella, talking by phone to our children in Cebu and in Vancouver, reading many thought provoking readings by Henri Nouwen and from the Upper
Room devotional.
