Cold Front

At last! It feels like December! Ignoring the laughter of our Northern friends, I'll tell the rest of you that it's a chilly 38 degrees this morning! Well, that's certainly better than the balmy 70s and 80s we've been having. Daddy started the first fire this morning and it looks a lot more like Christmas. Friday night, we went to the walk-through-nativity at near-by Briarwood church. We started this tradition several years ago and they keep making it better. The crowds were amazing, since this was the third night they had had this performance. They kept the people moving quickly, though, and one man told us they were bringing groups of 15-20 people through every couple minutes. They had scenes set up all around the parking lot of the church with people acting out the Christmas story, from the prophets to the resurrection. It was beautiful and we enjoyed it even more this year, since the waiting time had been cut down with the more stream-lined operation. We left the camera in the van, though, so there are no pictures from that event.
