Christmas on River Cove Road
Despite a little illness trying to make its way through the family, we managed to keep it together for a Christmas Eve celebration. Although Patrick did not get to sing with the choir at church (a sore throat took him out), he did manage to provide some bass sounds for our family singing with the help of his string bass. If you notice an unfamiliar creature in our pictures, that's our Christmas guest, Cloudy. He will stay with us until New Year's Day. The kids enjoyed opening their presents, and they got everything that they wanted. ;) After presents, we moved on to our fondue dinner where we ate so much food that no one had room for my raspberry cheesecake dessert!! Our lovely Christmas Eve was followed by a completely relaxed, do-nothing (except cook supper), sleep-and-video-game-the-day-away, Christmas Day. Maybe tomorrow we'll accomplish something. :)
