This week, my hubby & I both celebrate birthdays while moving squarely into that “mid-30’s” range.  Soooooo much cooler than the 20’s fyi.

Tonight, my hubby & I celebrated Christmas Eve by going to his home Church service with his parents.  Every year they turn off all the lights and everyone lights a candle. 

I leaned over to Dave & said, “try not spill hot wax on your pants this time.”  This was referring to our friends Curt & Emily’s wedding years ago when he spilled it in a most unfortunate place on his pants.

While we are all singing Silent Night and reflecting on the birth of Jesus, Dave leans over to re-light his candle that he somehow snuffed out and spills hot wax all over my leg… which of course I was not expecting but managed to whisper and not yell, “OUCH!”  And I almost dropped my candle as well.

This is what age does to you.
