Luminarias


My favorite of all favorite Christmas traditions is lighting luminarias on Christmas Eve.  Unfortunately, this year the weather kept me from putting out my normal 200.  I finally settled on 65 . . . just enough to go up the sidewalk and around the tree.  With snow coming in and dreadful cold, we could get them lighted, but cleaning them up might prove to be more of a challenge than we want to face.  So we did an abbreviated version  . . . yet I found them just as lovely.

As we arrive home from late church, the lighted candles are such a peaceful reminder of what this Christmas season is all about.  I am praying for peace and happiness for my friends and the world.
