Christmas Eve Dinner

It's Christmas Eve, and it's just the four of us. It's a quiet and peaceful night. We are blessed beyond measure. We are especially thankful to have our sweet Oliver William with us!













The menu: Sliced ham, parslied sweet potatoes, applesauce, green salad, yeast rolls, and basil butter.










We set up the camera with the timer to take a family picture. Our "Happy Birthday, Jesus" cake is in the foreground, decorated with the plastic nativity characters that I had as a kid.
