Merry Christmas everyone. Our house smells like cranberries and oranges. We are heading out to Peacock Lane (a local street that has Christmas lights). Paul is finishing up the presents he is making. Tomorrow we are going to the Robinsons and to a Christmas Eve service at Mosaic, our church. On Christmas we are going to the Tupper's. Paul has the rest of this week off and all of next week. We are so excited to get to spend some time together.

This just in: ALF is back!!!! My family used to watch ALF all the time. I copied this from yahoo:

"The 7,385 signers of the "Bring Back ALF" online petition letter have finally gotten their wish.
The furry, cat-craving extraterrestrial star of the 1980s NBC sitcom, most recently spotted slumming it for long-distance services 10-10-220 and 1-800-COLLECT, has just landed his own show on Nickelodeon."

There will be no funny school stories for a whole two weeks. It's Christmas break! I do have a cute Sunday School story for you though. Paul and I teach the preschool class which has been fun. Paul knows "the cleanup song" now. I have once or twice been tempted to belt it out while he and I are cleaning up around the house, just for fun. Anyway, yesterday Paul had to do the first part of Sunday School alone because I was doing a puppet show with two other ladies. During the puppet show (which the preschoolers attended but didn't know that I was a puppet) my character said that Jesus came to earth as a "tiny baby". Right after I said this a hear a little preschool voice out in the audience say (very earnestly), "No, he was a king, a king, Jesus was a king!" Then I hear Paul, "Shhhhh, listen." He said he smiled and winked at her, and she smiled back.
