Christmas company--First Round

Jonathan's parents and brother came for a visit this past weekend.  We packed a lot into only a few days.  Saturday we had rehearsal for the children's Christmas program at church, and then did it at a local nursing home.  We also cut down our tree, and Jonathan and I had the staff Christmas party that evening.  Sunday was the actual program at church, and then Lois and I attended a women's Christmas tea in the afternoon.  Monday we exchanged gifts and decorated the tree.  Tuesday we went to see a lights display up in Springfield, after going out for dinner.  We also found time to get a family picture taken, and the men decorated the outside of the house with lights.  Benjamin said next time everyone should stay until it's actually Christmas, because then we could see them longer!

Just my size!

Impressive lights display!  We've been up to see it several times, and it never disappoints!
