O Come, O Come
I love Christmas time. I love decorating the house... and the smell of baking springerli...packages in the mail... and Christmas shopping. *grin* Although, since I do more than half of it online, I don't know if it really counts as "shopping." More like I love finding/getting cool things to give to all the people on our list.
Anyway, it's been quiet around here. We didn't go Christmas caroling anywhere this year. Sad news... next year. Matt came over on Friday night to avoid a girl party at the farm. He's lucky he didn't come Thursday... Thursday was curry night... hehe. Saturday I ran off to Walmart and the Quilt store for a little bit while Bob watched little miss and we chilled for the rest of the day.
Sunday evening we went to the Christmas program at church. Grace was in it this year, and I'm starting to know who some of the kids are which makes it more fun!
Cecily and I went to the mall today to buy Christmas presents. We're down to two gift cards to get yet, woot woot, and waiting for a few things to be delivered. Poor UPS and Fedex trucks that have to turn around on our tight street full of vehicles... at least the boat is in storage now! Hehe.
Randomly, I decided that I don't like any of my Christmas CD's so I haven't been listening to any of them. What I want to listen to and sing along with is plain old Christmas Hymns. The old ones. Like 'O Come, O Come Emanuel' and 'Lo How a Rose.' (Katie, why didn't we ever make that CD we talked about?! I'm sure it would be exactly what I want to listen to right now!)
Blessings.

I know! My sister Michelle and I were wishing the other day for a good Christmas cd too! I have an old Detroit Choir cd that I listen to and another really good cd by the Cambridge Singers. That's pretty much it with except of instrumental cds.
I hear you! I have started using Spotify so I can listen (legally!) to new CDs for free. I have been a fan of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Vienna Boys Choir this year. : )
