'Tis the Season....part II

Tonight was the annual church Christmas dinner. Each table was decorated by a different family in the church. Here's a picture of our table and one of the place settings.
(the oil lamps were a requirement for every table).
And here's our "table". The guy sitting next to Brad is the manager at the Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market that is across the street from us. We've become good friends with him (mainly because we are in his store sooo often it's ridiculous!) and we were thrilled to have him join us at our dinner!
Anna Claire was "singing" along with the congregation as we sang some Christmas carols. Her version of Silent Night gives a new definition to that song....not so "peaceful"! :)
Every child in our congregation from newborn to 11 years old is paired with an adult in our church who commits to pray for that child throughout the year. At this dinner, the adults give a gift to their child/prayer partner. Here is my little girl with Anna Claire.
Merry Christmas.
