I just got back from walking Danny. I got my sweet potato in the oven and I’m going to heat up some ham. I went to the church today and help to deck the halls for Christmas. Barbara, Pam, and Diane were putting up the tree. It’s the kind that has the lights attached so it made things easy. I helped with the top of the tree as I was the tallest. We put white ornaments and red bows. Edna had made the large centerpiece for behind the alter. Carolyn and Newt decorated the side tables with white tablecloths, green table scarves and candle centerpieces. Pam’s sister brought a cake, yellow with chocolate icing. She ironed all the tablecloths before they were put on the table.
When Barbara moved into her new house, they did some renovations and found beautiful white ceramic nativity pieces behind a wall. They are trimmed with gold. Barbara washed them up and we placed them on a table in the Narthex. Diane bought some real balsam wreaths and I put some red bows on them and hung them on the outside doors at the main entrance. Edna made some large bows for the two big wreaths that we hung on each side of the cross. We had some cake and tea during our break. The Advent wreath that was used last year looked more like Easter colors. We decided to take the lavender bows off and put the white bows from the ribbon Edna used for the two big wreaths that were up beside the cross. It tied all the decorations together. I found a fiber optic angel so we put it up on the organ.
We had a good time preparing for Advent and Christmas. When my dinner is ready, I will sit down and watch the movie my brother lent me.
