Decking the halls with evergreen boughs. Christmas trees decorating the living room. Grandma’s village all lit up under the tree. Hymns sung at churches all across the world. Such are some of the traditions of Christmas. Where family gathers close and we stop to remember the beauty of the season when the Christ child was born and lay in a manger and changed the world.
We love this time of year. It was our grandma’s favorite time and she gave to us the gift of that love as well. She loved to pop a big bowl of popcorn and sit together and play games and watch a movie with a fire in the fireplace.
We would open one gift on Christmas Eve and it was always a homemade nightgown. We would run to put it on and gather with the family. Oh, such sweet sweet memories.
Gather with your loved ones. Pop that bowl of popcorn and enjoy grandma’s favorites.
or as my sister and I said when we were little “The Beautiful Wife”
