We Beans are enjoying some family downtime, and we hope you and yours are doing the same.
In the meantime, you can drop by Faith & Family where Rebecca Teti is treating us to 12 days of art and song for Christmas, read my Christmas Eve column at Inside Catholic and/ or be the 300+ person to comment on my NCRegister post about receiving Communion on the tongue. 😉
