Merry Christmas Eve!





The kids are so excited. They have been tracking Santa on the internet. Brianna is especially interested, she has been asking every half hour if it's time to open gifts. I actually had to work from home today, but they let us stop working at 1:00 pm. Later, we went over for wassail and pie to our new neighbors across the street in this 70 degree weather. It was a pleasant visit with an interesting couple, Chuck and Carol Lucas. They have just moved back to the states from spending four years in Switzerland. Now Chuck is working in Lagos, Nigeria. What a difference!
I didn't feel like cooking tonight so after opening gifts with Celeste and Alicia we went out to eat at French Quarter Market Grill. We are planning on going to midnight mass tonight and probably the caroling before the mass. I hope the kids can stay awake for it all. I let them decide which mass to attend and this is what they wanted to do, so we'll try it out this year and see if they, or should I say we, can stay awake.
