Merry Ho Ho Ho To You

Posted on December 26, 2004November 24, 2019 by Paul Armstrong

Christmas Day is now behind us, and what a day it was. Christmas Eve was spent making cookies, playing, getting last minute gifts, taking naps and going to the evening service at church. The kiddos didn’t go to sleep till well past 11pm. Sonya and I hoped they would then sleep in.

Abigail awoke at 8am, which was pretty late by normal standards, let alone for Christmas Day. Elliott and I slept a little bit longer till 8:30. The kids came downstairs and opened some stocking gifts as I made some pancakes and prepared breakfast. The kids sat for a few seconds then asked to be excused. At about 10 we annihilated the room, wrapping paper every where, boxes being flung, screams and yelps of excitement — a swirl of good cheer.

Their where My Little Pony’s and Thomas the Tank Engine, Veggie Tales and DVDs, CDs and games, clothes, shoes, socks, anime, sweaters and mugs, coffee and books and books and books. So today, we’ve all settled down. Serious gift exploration time. I will be reading (and probably finishing) an incredible book my sister got me, Imagine : A Vision for Christians in the Visual Arts. I highly highly highly recommend it. I\’ve seen it on the CIVA site, but now reading through it … I am thoroughly inspired. I also need to plot how to spend my Christmas booty. Mini stereo? Music? Shoes? DVDs? I have no clue … More later …
