Two evenings of Lessons and Carols done, one as a server and the other in the congregation. They were glorious as always, last night J (aged 8) did one of the readings so perfectly I got quite choked up ♥
Tonight after the service my sister,
seiyaharris & I went to a nearby pub and drank Pear & Plum Mulled Cider which was delicious AND as an added bonus there was a pub cat and it came and sat on B quite happily for most of our time there. Lovely end to the evening.
My favourite piece of music from this year's service was Eric Whitacre's
Lux Aurumque which I'm going to embed below, I suggest listening too it when you have a moment of peace & quiet this Christmas and bonus points if you can have a candle lit because I think it sounds just like warm candlelight, or sun in the heat of summer or during one of those beautiful and heavy sunsets. Just beautiful all round.
