It has become a tradition that every Christmas afternoon we go caroling at a nursing home where many individuals are lonely during the holiday. Many residents had gone home to be with family but there are also some who don't have anywhere else to go so they remain at the nursing home. I imagine they are lonely and Great when others come to bring joy to them on the special Christmas day. We got a let rather large group together this year and went caroling at the Old folks home that grandma great Martha route son lives. She was not there, she was actually at Christmas with her sister. But we were still able to sing for many residents who were there Christmas Day. It is even more exciting as the kids are older and able to sing along because they actually know the words to the songs. They can also read the music. I love to have them involved in service projects like this. To bring joy to others on Christmas Day.
Afterward we all read joined together at our house for Christmas day dinner. It was a nice gathering with lots of friends and good food. It is always memorable.
