Christmas

Christmas was quiet and simple for Greg and I. We had  a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner with our friends Ken and Cathleen. They made us these fabulous t-shirts ....(I really like them, Greg likes them because he likes me, therefore he likes them).


Front: Team Scheby Back: Gregory 01, Leslie 02
Does anyone else feel a sitcom coming on..?


On Christmas Day we helped with the Christmas service at church. Greg helped with the slide show illustrating the story of Christmas and I helped with the preschool children singing. We also enjoyed this great "Happy Birthday Jesus" cake. We even sang happy birthday in English and Spanish, Yes folks, I am learning some Spanish! Well...at least the verses of worship songs we sing in Spanish :).



We spent some time talking with our families on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day via Skype. Isn't Skype a wonderful thing? We were able to show them some our Christmas presents.




(These pictures are not the best, but I received a new pair of Tom's
and Greg received a Keurig)

Since Greg wanted lasagna for Christmas dinner (He loves his mom's lasagna!), even after I reminded him of the terrible results of the "lasagna soup" for the first meal I made him, he insisted we make it together. So we forged ahead. 


Greg cooked the noodles (notice the "Team Scheby" t-shirt).


I prepared the other ingredients.


After much speculation and a good bunch of mozzarella on top of the lasagna, we had a wonderful Italian Christmas dinner.


We dearly missed spending time with our families to celebrate Christmas, but are thankful for the opportunity to "see" them through the Internet. Hoping everyone had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
