It rained overnight and continued throughout the entire day which resulted in a pretty gloomy and cold Christmas Eve. Things were pretty quiet here on the fort and we spent most of the day inside staying warm and dry.
This morning John went to the post office, picked up a few groceries, and then stopped at Ralph's to get the turkey giblets. When he returned home he started on the giblet gravy for tomorrow's Christmas dinner. I spent a good portion of my day on the Shutterfly web site making a 2012 calendar with some of my photos and preparing a Jello salad. In between working on the calendar and making gravy, we also watched the NFL games.
This evening we attended our church's Christmas Eve Candlelight Service which was followed by a meal of hot soups, snacks, and cookies. We ended the day with our annual viewing of It's A Wonderful Life and The Christmas Story. We never get tired of watching these wonderful classic movies. Merry Christmas!!
We have started this blog to keep family and friends updated with news and photos about our lives in both Minnesota and Texas. We hope you will check in often and enjoy sharing our experiences.
