Christmas Music




                          Our Christmas meetings are always such fun!  Priscilla asked her niece to come with her trio to sing for us (they were so good!!) and then Priscilla shared the history of many of our popular Christmas songs. Joy's beautifully decorated home - most hand made by herself - is always delightful. And of course the food was wonderful too! If this is too gushy, too bad, it was great!
