Christmas Eve 2014. Our second Christmas without Barry & Zach. It is so hard. Miss them so much.
In the past Christmas Eve's, Barry, Sigrid Zach & Abby would have arrived during the afternoon & we would have supper together. A lot of chatter around the table. So much to talk about. Sometimes we would all go to church Christmas Eve. Sometimes, just Zach & Abby would come with us. Then we would have snacks later.
Sometimes, Allen, Lena, Jared & Brandon would have arrived. Sometimes, Chris, Charlotte, Adam, Katie, Carly & Nick would stop in after church & there would be lots of food to enjoy.
Things have changed. This year, our kids will all be home Christmas Day. Some will come for lunch, the rest will arrived early in the afternoon. First we'll open gifts, then we'll have coffee & some snacks. Some may go skating, some of us will visit & then start the supper prep.
This year we are having a fondue & the grandkids are really looking forward to it. We will have a good time. We will miss Barry & Zach so very much. There will be times when it will just be too quiet.
This is their second Christmas in Heaven. I'm sure their Christmas is alot more fun & meaningful than ours. Someday we'll join them & then we'll have the best Christmas ever. I wonder what Christmas in Heaven is like?
