Epiphany when the three Kings arrived to visit the Baby Jesus although as with everything these days there seems to be a bit of confusion as to the date when it should be celebrated. Some say it should be on January 5th and some January 6th, our Church are celebrating it today!
Whatever date it is when the three Kings arrived, even if it is a little late as we always seem to represent the Kings being there when Jesus was born. It is also the date when we take all the decorations down which is the bit I hate about Christmas, I always think that this house looks so dull without all the pretty decorations and especially the lights. In fact I have been keeping a few of the white lights out to brighten the place up.
We are at the swimming pool all day today with our swimming club’s Open so it is going to be a very long and tiring day, hey ho.
Happy Sunday everyone.
Hugs, Susie xx
Well, I did get the tree down and out into the backyard so I can cut it up with the chain saw later. The houses, Santas and the rest of the decor is staying up for a while…my dad, my 4 month old grandson and I all have the flu, so there is little energy right now. Only one daughter left in town and she leaves tomorrow morning…the other two left on Thursday and Friday. It is mighty quiet in the house after having 3 kids here! Luckily when my daughter came over to visit today she ran to the grocery store for me so I won’t have to leave the house for that soon! Have fun at the swimming today!!
Mom has agreed to take down another strand of lights – but only one☺ Happy Sunday, Miss Susie!
