Have a Wonderful Christmas!

Hello everyone from Ten Gables Cottage,

It is only two days until Christmas. I hope you have not been naughty this year and that Santa stops in to see you! Ten Gables Cottage is abuzz with all sorts of last minute preparations, so today will be my last post for a few days as I am going to be very busy and lots of company in!

Christmas Eve night, we all go to a beautiful candlelight service at church, which is so awesome and very inspirational and inspiring. We will celebrate the true meaning of Christmas---the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

Christmas day we will have a feast of ham, turkey, all the trimmings and of course, the massive Old Fashioned Apple Stack Cake! We will also have the traditional Christmas pudding with custard. After an early afternoon meal, we will gather in the family room to open gifts. The grandchildren, especially, look forward to this hour and all are excited. This year, I see that the grandchildren are keen on GIVING as well as receiving. That is nice to see!

We'll have eggnog and cookies later in the afternoon and just visit and have fun, maybe go for a drive and see the decorations our town has put out, as well as certain neighborhoods that are well-decorated.

I want to thank you for looking at my blog and making it successful. Thanks for all your comments and input and I do hope you will continue to follow Cottage Creative Living. I hope you have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR! Egretta
