Brad's family always gathers on Christmas Eve for snacks. In recent years, we've met at Barb and Gene's Newberg house in the afternoon before I had to scoot off to NFC for bells. We paused briefly before digging in to the goodies Donna made:
After we were sufficiently stuffed, we opened some gifts. Barb looked chic in her trendy NYC scarf from Jill.
Gene did not model his new undies!
I scored a Santa Mickey for my collection!
And Steve took home some cargo sweat knickers.
After, my mom, sis and I played with our handbell choir in three candlelight services at Newberg Friends. When we finally left the church about 9:30 p.m., it was foggy, frosty and gorgeous!

I'm so excited that you got a picture of the luminarias outside the church Christmas Eve. We thought they were exceptionally lovely with the fog.
ReplyDeleteThey were amazing! I wish I had taken the time to set up my little tripod to get a better shot. Oh well :)
