Please forgive the fact that my post are completely out of chronological order. Be happy with the fact that there are actual posts. It is 2010 … embrace non-perfection.
We have some very good friends who have an annual hayride right before Christmas where we all hop on board and go Christmas caroling through part of the neighborhood. It is an annual event that is looked forward to. It is so much fun for all those involved. It generally goes a little like this …
Friends gather …
Food is shared …
Hugs are shared …
Attention is gotten …
The TRUE Christmas story is read from the Holy Bible …
Then the organized chaos begins! Load ‘em up kids …
Don’t mess with this woman. Ma-mo was on guard at the rear of the trailer making sure all the passing cars were going slow enough around us.
Then the singing begins. A little “Away in a Manger”. A little “Rudolph the Red nosed Reindeer”. A little “Silent Night”. It really is a great, great night shared with great friends. It’s one of our favorite Christmas memories!
As an aside … this year’s event was held on December 23rd. It was about 68 degrees while we rode around. One of the girls was barefoot!!! Twenty-four hours later, it was snowing like crazy! Only in Texas my friends!
