Christmas Eve is my favorite night of the year (maybe with the exception of Fair Week). The excitement of Christmas builds a as hopes and wishes reach a peak…before the grand unveiling Christmas Day

Christmas Eve is a special time for family and friends. Our annual gathering for crab, cocktails and conversation is full of stories and laughter as well as good food.

Christmas Eve is also a time to be spiritual in your own way. I tend to reflect on how fortunate I am. How lucky I am to have my family, and the realization that the things I complain about or that get under my skin are not really a big deal.

Christmas Eve is a time for magic… if you believe, anything is possible.

I am lucky to live where I do, work with good people, and feel connected to the community.

I wish you all a special Christmas Eve, and a Merry Christmas. May all your wishes come true.
