The purpose of this thread is to provide a place for all here to share how they intend to spend Christmas Eve & Christmas Day, or how they have actually spent such: I will start off: Christmas Eve: With my wife and youngest son, I will join my 2nd son, his family and many relatives for a celebration and gift exchange. Missing from this will be my 2nd step-great grandchild who popped into life less than a week ago and continues to adjust to life in the outside world, his brother who is sick, and his mother who is caring for the two. Christmas Day: This will be a more quiet day. Our youngest son, is visiting us and we will be joined by my oldest son and his mother as we share a Christmas meal which my wife has prepared and otherwise celebrate the day together. God is good: Life is good. Family is good:

A cousin of mine has been a Catholic, and is now telling me she's converting to Judaism — but still has her Mother Mary shrines in her home, celebrates Christmas, etc. She's posted pro-Jewish comments, which I fully endorse. However, she's also begun to post in-your-face items which almost smack of defamation of the basic tenets of Christianity. Today, she posted this on her FB page. Apart from the obvious comparison of Jesus with Muhammad, there is something inherently wrong with it, but I can't put my finger on it . I looked up the author of that tweet, and I'm not impressed with his/her ideas, language, nor communication style.

We traveled 350 miles to Atlanta for a family gathering. So many will be there that the church social hall was rented out for the day for Christmas dinner. Fun times!

Grand kids, or I should say oldest, who's 10, couldn't sleep and kept coming and waking us up to open presents. We finally relented and let him start opening presents with his 7 year old brother, around 6 am. Got his parents up to so they could take pictures too. After I made pancakes for breakfast. Now starting to cook for eating around 1 pm. I've already made the cranberry sauce yesterday so its nice and cold. Was going to do a Tofurky for today, but we already had a turkey, with no bones, so I'm making that with herb stuffing on the side with a few other dishes. Will do the Tofurky Dinner for New Years day. Will just be Connie, my wife, with the grand kids and there parents. It'll be our second Christmas without my Mom!

? Fight of faith ? 1Tim 6:12 Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

I'm here at my home on Christmas Eve with my two pups, neither of whom got me a Christmas present ?. Tomorrow will be the same. Maybe I'll vacuum the carpet and have a TV Dinner ~ lol
