It started with a not-so-simple Nativity Scene in St. Ignatius church...

The stable with the manger

They depicted the whole village scene

Complete with a small market

Then, it continued with an actual fir tree.  Specifically, a 3-feet tall Noble Pine tree.

After my decorating skills!

I have a Rudolph

Then came the food masquerading as Christmas presents...








When it came to Christmas Eve dinner with the family, we had a lot of yummy food too!








As always, after letting the food settle down for a couple of hours, we headed off to church for the Midnight Mass.  This year, a cat decided to join us during our celebrations but it scooted off so fast, I couldn't get a snapshot of it.  Ah well, animals rejoice at the coming of Christ too ;)

I hope everyone had a great Christmas and here's me wishing all a Happy and Joyous Christmas to you and your family with many more to come.
