It's so nice to have a hot Christmas again. I missed it so much when we were in the Netherlands. *happy sigh*

Anyway, even if you don't celebrate Christmas, have a good day guys!
Yesterday, we had a Christmas Eve service at church, and Father Tom was telling us about the christian links to some traditional Christmas stuff. The tree, for example, came from an Irish priest in Germany. The people there worshipped oak trees, so he used the triangular and evergreen fir tree to illustrate his point about the Trinity. He was killed for his efforts, but the idea stuck and invaded Britian with Prince Albert when he married Queen Victoria. He also talked about Santa, which, having lived in the Netherlands for seven years, we knew ALL about! He kept double-checking the pronunciation of the Dutch words with us, but gave up when he got to Zwarte Piet and just asked Other Brother to say it for him.

Apologies I couldn't get a Christmas picture this year. I did try to draw one, but the STUPID HANDS just wouldn't look right no matter how hard I tried, and it was a measly effort anyway, so I gave up. Shame too, cuz I really liked the face I drew. I stuffed up the glasses, but it turned out alright. Maybe I'll put it in scraps later.

I'll talk more another time. Happy Christmas everyone!
