Flashback Friday

2000:
This was the 1st Christmas without my Fil, and my MIL was having a rough time. I caught her late Christmas Eve, still wrapping presents and crying. I calmed her down and offered to help. Together, we wrapped the presents for the kids and placed them under the tree.

The rest of the family arrived the next day, and so did the snow. We arrived home on the 27th and were 'snowed out' of our own home. The Su managed to get the car into the driveway, but we had to shovel snow away from the door before we could enter.

Today's carol is my absolute favorite. Enjoy, and Merry Christmas! We're heading north to my parents' home, and hopefully will not be snowed in! Sunday, we're traveling to my aunt's house, and depending on the weather, coming home that night.

I'll be back on the 28th:)

O Holy Night

O holy night 
the stars are brightly shining 
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth
 Long lay the world in sin and error pining 
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth 
 A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices 
For yonder breaks a new glorious morn
 Fall on your knees 
O hear the angels' voices 
O night divine 
O night when Christ was born 
O night divine, 
O night O night divine  
A thrill of hope,
 the weary world rejoices 
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn
 Fall on your knees 
O hear the angels' voices 
O night divine 
O night when Christ was born 
O night divine,
 O night
 O night divine
