Carols, Cocoa, and Cookies

14 Dec

Brendan and I had a wonderful weekend. I baked more sugar cookies!

Christmas Trees!

Christmas Trees!

Brendan and I went to our church’s (West Hills Presbyterian Church of America) Festival of Carols last night. Our sanctuary choir performed with the Knoxville orchestra. The music was beautiful! The program consisted of “O Come, All Ye Faithful”, selections from Handel’s Messiah, “Joy to the World”, “The Angels Rejoice”, “Away in a Manger,” “Mary, Did you Know?”, “The Lord’s Prayer”, and many others.

I adore Christmas songs and listening to them with an orchestra was even more amazing. I kept my eyes closed and let the music wash over me as I reflected on the reason for the season. It was so special to hear such beautiful hymns and share them with my husband and church family.

When we got home, Brendan and I snacked on sugar cookies and drank hot chocolate.

What a lovely way to wrap up the weekend.
