Happy to say, it finally really really feels like Christmas, and it's wonderful! Of course it's not the same, and we acutely are aware of all we're missing, but it's so nice to have those warm Christmas feelings!
After the boys went to bed, I wrapped a few Christmas presents (all the lovely packages are hiding on the balcony from the boys)... a few from us, which I think are pretty good!, and one each for their daycare Christmas party. Then Ben and I settled in, snacking and just relaxing on our lovely heated floor, watching "It's a Wonderful Life" (Ben's idea, good man), with just that incredible, warm glow of Christmas lights lighting the room. It probably helped to make the evening so special that we haven't had such a nice stretch of time together in awhile.
Oh, and we had our first snow in town tonight, and it was a good heavy one! No fluffy white slow falling flakes, but a pretty good storm!
So that was very Christmasy too.
Tonight was a great Christmas present for me, full of peace and warmth and rest and love.
LOL Minstries and Shutting my Mouth!

So glad to hear that you are enjoying some Christmas cheer - even in Korea! Sounds like a lovely romantic evening. Reminds me of the Christmas song about "...the weather outside is frightful...." Love you guys. Sure miss ya.
Oh, that's so true. That's just how it was. I was really thankful. I'm pretty sure we're watching Scrooge/A Christmas Carol on Christmas Eve.
