We had a really nice Christmas moment tonight, watching "The Polar Express." Madison chose that movie for the evening, and Daddy made some hot chocolate to go along with it - hot, hot, hot! Such a magical movie, really. This probably won't be the last time we see it, actually.
It was a great service this morning at KidPak, where we were taking a closer look at the game Clue. It's one of Madison's favorite games right now, and the message was spot-on. Her notes were all over the page of her sermon booklet, as usual. And as you can see above, we had a skit, one that involved some of our volunteers, and lots of laughs. As always, we had the two services, so it's always a full morning.
But we had to keep the train going, because after church, we headed over to Red Lobster for a birthday celebration with Daddy's grandmother, that is Madison's great grandmother. It was a very nice afternoon, sitting and talking with her - and Nana and Ye-Ye as well, who brought her there. It happened to be Madison's first trip to Red Lobster, one she remarked afterwards, "wasn't that bad." Of course, she had no seafood. She tried a garlic cheese roll, and didn't like it much Fortunately, there were fries, chicken strips, and lots of ketchup. As long as the place has lots of ketchup, it's going to go well for Madison.
So afterwards, we went home to rest. We had plans to do some energetic decorating or whatnot, but we were a bit tired. So we put a fire in the fireplace, and had a magical Christmas moment, snuggling on the couch, watching a movie, and drinking hot chocolate. Yes, it was that kind of night, just perfect.
