Our Christmas tree for 2024 in our den. This photo was from December 23, when all of the gifts were wrapped and placed under the tree, because we would start opening them the next day.
Yes, Christmas was a couple of weeks ago now, but I am still catching up on the Christmas posts. It was a busy holiday season, not that I am complaining about it. And besides, this photo is being posted on the 12th Day of Christmas.
Each year, we have our traditional Christmas gatherings. And one of our traditions during each of those traditional gatherings is taking photos to commemorate the occasion. Here are a few photos from our 2024 Gatherings. Okay, maybe more than a few photos.
Christmas Eve We spend Christmas Eve at my parents’ house, eating a delicious lunch, opening presents, talking, and taking photos.
Here we are all together in front of the fireplace.
Over several days during the 2024 Christmas season, I made a series of social media posts of verses relating to the Christmas holidays, very loosely inspired by “A Visit from St. Nicholas”, which is better known by its first line. I should probably apologize to Clement Moore for that.
Some verses were more humorous, some were slightly more serious. Some had a definite meter, while others did not. There is a reason why I am not a full-time poet, after all.
