Christmas with Gigi!

     Jeffrey's first Christmas began today, complete with baby Jesus, candles, carols, presents, turkey and pie. Our church service included the Lord's Supper and candle light service this morning. Mike showed a video clip from the trip I went on to Israel. It was in Bethlehem, explaining the church built on top of the traditional birth site of Jesus, going down into the "cave," explaining what it would have been like and singing Away in a Manger at the birth place of Christ. That was the most amazing, mind-broadening, life changing trip and am incredibly lucky to have been on it with Mom, Mike and Buckner.
     After church, we quickly dropped off our presents for Jen's family. Graham has the flu and is quarantined. Sadly, they will not be going with us to Dallas after Christmas either. Then we went to Mom's house for a wonderful Christmas dinner. I think she was excited to make turkey and dressing and all the good stuff we love because she didn't make it on Thanksgiving. It was such a great meal. Her dressing is amazing. I ate way, way too much! Jeffrey liked the pecan pie!
     After lunch/dinner, we opened gifts with Jen, Mark, Lainey and Graham via Facetime. Thanks to the Tamiflu, it seems Graham is doing a lot better, but still contagious. They are making the most of it though!

Thank you for a wonderful Christmas Sunday, Gigi!!!
