LUKE 2:1-20
King James Version (KJV)

1And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.

2(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)

5To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

6And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

7And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.

8And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.

12And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

15And it came to pass, as the angels were gone away from them into heaven, the shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which is come to pass, which the Lord hath made known unto us.

16And they came with haste, and found Mary, and Joseph, and the babe lying in a manger.

17And when they had seen it, they made known abroad the saying which was told them concerning this child.

18And all they that heard it wondered at those things which were told them by the shepherds.

19But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart.

20And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told unto them.

Thanks very much, Kathy!

*HUGS*

Ours went very well. I think Ms. MacNessa and I went a little overboard with the gifts this year - that's been happening more often the last couple of years. My daughter sang with the choir at Midnight Mass - I wasn't physically up to it this year.

In the morning, we breakfasted - bacon, scrapple, grits and eggs - lots of coffee.

The children were all happy with their gifts and we had a good dinner - baked ham this year instead of our customary prime rib. We partied with family for desert until about 9:00 p.m. I hope you and yours had the happiest of Christmases as well! Happy St. Stephen's Day!

Hit the office at 7:00 a.m. this morning - looks like everyone is taking today off. Traffic on the way in was non-existent. All the parking garages are closed today - had to park on the street. I hope holiday parking rules are in effect - would hate to get towed!

As Christmas was on Sunday, we got Monday off. I have a long list, but need some sleep first.

Enjoy your “quiet” day at the office. I like working the days when no one is there. Be careful on the walk to your car. *HUGS*

Your kids are only young once. Glad you had a wonderful Christmas day.

I’m thinking that prime rib would be good next year. We had ham...it was good.
