Another Christmas Eve has arrived. After not feeling well yesterday, and Catherine definitely not feeling well (doctor thinks strep as well...antibiotics have begun) we are all feeling better today. It is also the first Christmas Eve in several years that Robert hasn't had somewhere else to be. We spent the day yesterday picking up and cleaning the house, and finishing so many other little things so that we can enjoy today. Andrew got up and worked out and then ran to the grocery. We will attend 4:00 church then order our annual Chinese. We have some specific TV/movie viewing that is going to happen this evening and we will have some snacks and beverages (adult and non-adult) as we share our evening. I have one more present to wrap after kids' bedtimes, but for the most part we are ready and are just going to enjoy our time together. This is might very well be the last Christmas Eve our little family of five gets to spend together like this. We understand that Robert most likely will not be able to be with us next year, and we don't know when he will be again.
It is supposed to snow this evening and overnight. We won't be receiving a great deal of accumulation, but it would be lovely if we could wake up with even just a coating of snow on the ground in the morning!
