Christ is the reason for the season, he came to Earth and one day he's going to come back - cummon!

It's Christmas Eve and I'm sat in my dressing gown listening to Feeder doing a bit of web-editing and CSI watching before going to Paul and Emily's house this afternoon. Have been hearing from all sorts of people over the past few days which has been really nice (Hiya to Nadine, Helen, Sarah, Sam, Ally and all in DRAT!) I now feel very Christmassy. This evening have our traditional Christmas Eve beef roast (with lots of lovely visitors) and then I'll be going off to Midnight Mass with my mother - on return I shall open this silver envelope from Helen that has been annoying me (in a nice way - I just want to see what is in it!) and is sat by my computer! All other presents shall have to wait until tomorrow afternoon after lunch!

Yesterday was really quite a nice day (though I did have cabin fever at one point!) got my dapper suit, watched some CSI, visited Ally and went to Willoby's nine lessons and carols with my parents. The service was pretty fantastic - straight down the line no messing readings, carols, large choir (with a humourous firey director!), and an organist. Couldn't have asked for better. No technology either (which was quite refreshing), there was no heating either which wasn't quite so good - it was rather chilly! The church was packed and afterwards the warm mince pies and mulled wine was super thing to be offering (I had a good few mince pies and had to hold a glass of wine though I wasn't drinking it to 'look good' at my Father's instruction.

My mother has been cooking bread again this morning and the fresh aroma is once again rising up the stairs reminding me that I haven't yet had breakfast and am feeling rather hungry! Really looking forward to the days ahead, It's so good to be with my family and also good to be reminded how God came to earth as Jesus! There's no greateer reason to celebrate in my oppinion. Have a very Merry Christmas. God Bless...
