I spent the day baking Caramel Apple Cheesecake bars and a few loaves of fresh homemade bread to take to Fred’s Family Christmas this evening. One problem Fred had to work so he wasn’t gonna make it and I couldn’t drive due to my foot being swollen and sore. Of course it’s not a problem as I get to enjoy the goodies I spent all day making and they were delicious!

Today I sat on the front porch for awhile. It was 70 degrees and gorgeous. The deer were grazing out in front of the house. We need to remember the animals at Christmas too!

This was an everyday life kind of day. I had a physical therapy appointment
this morning. Then we ran errands to get ready for Christmas. We went to
a Chinese restaurant for lunch, yummy! Above is Michael reading his fortune.
"If you can't excel with talent, triumph with effort." I then explained it to
him and we talked about our different talents. Later after arriving home we
received a package from my sister. Michael had a blast with the bubble wrap.
I thought about my fortune when I saw how much fun he was having popping
bubble wrap. "It's not the years in your life, but the life in your years that
count." We had a great day together and are now ready for Christmas!

December 19 2011
A Christmas memory I have as a young girl of 5 or 6 is coming home from Christmas Eve candle light service with my Grandmother. It was a cold crisp night and very dark with the stars sparkling over head. We passed an Oil Derrick and I remember it looked like a Christmas tree all lit up, it was beautiful. We were listening to the Little Drummer boy song on the radio and when Grandmother and I got out of the car we heard a pump jack in the distance running. I told her it was the Little Drummer boy playing his drum for Jesus. I was young at the time and didn’t know it was a pump jack running but I remember that night with my Grandmother. She didn’t deny me hearing the Little Drummer boy and I love her for that. It’s one of the few special times I was alone with Grandmother, with a big family that didn’t happen often. Every time I see a Derrick all lit up or hear a pump jack running I think of her and that special night on Christmas Eve.
