Christmas Eve 2009

Snow fell. Snow blew. Plans changed. Celebrations were cancelled. We went to the Christmas Eve church service and had to push Emily's car when it got stuck in the yard coming back home. Our Christmas Eve plans are always the same. Grandma Coleman makes codfish in milk sauce and when dishes are done we open presents. This year we simply went home. I had made Famous Dave's Meatloaf (which is really good!) and we enjoyed meatloaf, mashed potatoes and carrots when we got home from church. We opened our family presents and then enjoyed a quiet evening at home playing Apples to Apples. It was a different Christmas Eve than we had hoped for or planned for but it was spent at home together with everyone happy and safe. The weather on Christmas Day was much the same with snow falling and blowing. Another quiet day spent at home.
Macy's presents.
Daniel's presents.
