Christmas Eve Traditions

I am sure we all have traditions for christmas eve.

Now that my kids are grown and live away our traditions have changed greatly! But it is still important to have some and to make the day a great one.

First my hubby and I will have a light meal and then will go to the Christmas Eve service at church. After we get home we will sit with the tree and read the christmas story together. Then share a prayer of thankfulness for all that we have been blessed with, especially the birth of Jesus. And then we will probably enjoy a christmas movie and the lights on the tree.

I will have a breakfast ready to go into the oven in the morning and then we will share a gift or two.

So what are your traditions for the Christmas?

                                          This vintage santa was mine when I was a child.
                              And the gingies are special gifts from and ornament exchange.

       As I look at my tree and admire each ornament I always include their makers in a prayer. I believe that is called praying by association!!

So many ornaments equals so many friends!

I am truly blessed.

Merry Christmas to all my followers. May you each see and feel the blessings of Christmas.
