The Grand Finale

Merry Christmas everyone!
As usual, I did some last minute shopping. I am always one of those out on the last day. I played in the hand bell choir at the Christmas Eve Church Service. My favorite part of the service is when we light and hold candles and sing Silent Night, sharing that tradition with others around the world. Tonight was especially beautiful because we were sitting in the balcony looking down at so many friends, with the place filled with such a beautiful sound. We were invited to Joyce and Gary's for dinner. After a spectacular meal, Gary said, "I hope you left room for dessert" and brought out his torch! So I, of course, had to get out the camera. The best crème brulee I have ever had!
I am looking forward to tomorrow when our family will be here for our celebration.
