December 2nd

Tonight was the annual "Hanging of the Green" service at church.  Love it!  The kids help decorate while we sing Christmas carols.  We end the night lighting candles and singing "Silent Night" before heading over to the fellowship hall for some cookies and wassail.  I had never even heard of "wassail" until moving to Sonora last year.  

It was also the night I almost burned down the church.  I didn't even realize I had put my arm over Wyatt's candle...but no worries.  My good friend Corey stood up from the pew behind me and put out the fire that was my shirt.  Somehow it did not burn a hold in my shirt...but I did smell like burnt popcorn for the rest of the night.
