all that is merry and bright to you

I wrapped presents earlier this week. Bags are so much faster but I do love looking at a pile of nicely papered and beribboned packages. I'm still making a couple of handmade things but I pledge to relax and enjoy over the long weekend.

I wish you and your families a bright and beautiful and hopeful Christmas, filled with the love of Christ, warmth, and good things to eat. And a nicely wrapped present.
