Christmas Morning

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire Jack Frost nipping at your nose Yuletide carols being sung by a choir And folks dressed up like Eskimos Everybody knows a turkey and some Mistletoe help to make the season bright Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow Will find it hard to sleep tonight They know that Santa’s on his way He's loaded lots of toys and goodies On his sleigh And every mother's Child is gonna spy to see if Reindeer really know how to fly And so, I'm offering this Simple phrase to kids from One to ninety-two Altho' it's been said many times Many ways “Merry Christmas to you”

Today was a bit of a lazy day. I managed to laze around all morning, reading Rapture Practice by Aaron Hartzler while drinking coffee. Then Alexander and I watched a Christmas movie while eating lunch. I came back down to my nook on the couch afterwards, watching a few episodes of Gossip Girl before getting ready for tonight's Christmas Service at the Lutheran Church my mom works at. (: 

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know Where the treetops glisten and children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow I'm dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white I'm dreaming of a white Christmas Just like the ones I used to know Where the treetops glisten and children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow I'm dreaming of a white Christmas With every Christmas card I write May your days be merry and bright And may all your Christmases be white

If you don't understand the reference in the title, shame on you for never watching an episode of Friends! Anyway, this morning mom and I woke up around 8 am, ate some breakfast together and watched two episodes of our TV show. Around 10, we met with my Dad at the mall to do some shopping for my mom (clothes and shoes, which is fabulous since we're pretty much the same size and can wear each other's clothes)! We were done with shopping by noon so we decided to go eat lunch at Panera bread, where I ordered a Mediterranean Veggie and Tomato Basil Bisque with an Iced Green Tea. :) Stopping a few more places, we got back home around 2. When we got back I started back up reading Rapture Practice by Aaron Hartzler, but I ended up dozing off for about 45 minutes. When I woke up, I helped my mom wrap some presents before leaving for the Lutheran Church last Advent service. There was a meal (macaroni and hotdogs, obviously I only ate macaroni). ...
