Santa Lucia Caroling
Yesterday Mary and I baked a bunch of cookies and some Santa Lucia breads. Then the Lymans came down after church and Sam and Eden did a great job of decorating the sugar cookies.
We piled cookies on plates and wrapped the festive braided breads. Eden donned the candle wreath and Sam took an electric candle and some jingle bells. Off we went to deliver treats and good cheer to some of our older friends in the neighborhood!
We sang as we walked: Jingle Bells, I saw Three Ships, The Holly and the Ivy, Rudolf, Angels we Have Heard on High. Eden bobbed along in her candle hat and Sam kept thinking of new songs to sing. At one point Eden requested we sing her favorite: "Mr Sun."
Indeed, I heard Angels.
