Christmas Day!

Right now it’s very quiet here. I have Y108’s Countrified Christmas on again, listening to non stop Holiday Songs. It’s much more fun than watching the hundreds of repeat Hallmark movies (although I do watch them every day!).

Mr. Grinch is playing now…

We had a nice visit last night – I sat and talked to Jesse and Tonia for about an hour or so while we were waiting for Kathy and Paul after church. Isaac doesn’t say much. Everyone seemed to like the sloppy joes and the potatoes, and everyone ALWAYS likes cookies! Kathy and Nate and I sat and talked for a while after dinner. Chrissy was there for about an hour and a half until her mom picked her up. Chrissy took pictures for me but she had a lot of uncooperative subjects!

Nate, Kathy (Aunt Cordelia) and me
Jesse in blue, Isaac in the back, Paul with a pillow over his face. Tonia escaped entirely!
My photographer! She even wore a Snoopy shirt!

I left most of the indoor Christmas lights on all night, as well as the radio. It was very faint but it sung me to sleep! I had left a lot of things go yesterday so I spent the first hour this morning looking for a runaway battery that escaped under the dresser, glued a broken lid, and restacked the take-home containers that ended up all mishappen in the garage. I had toast and an egg for breakfast and a few crackers and cheese for lunch. I just finished making Peyton’s Oreo ice cream for Saturday. He’ll have to share, of course. All I have to do now is on Friday bake Brownies for Jen (and everyone else!)

Oreo Ice Cream – I still needed to add the red Oreos.

I looked out the kitchen window, and low and behold! SANTA must be having lunch at the neighbor’s. The reindeer’s antlers are sticking up above the house. Daniel’s every day grass mowing must have paid off.

See the antlers? Top almost right.
I know this is fuzzy – it’s through the screen.

It will be later once I get home from Nate’s so I’ll post those family Christmas pictures tomorrow.

No presents under my tree – Santa’s coming back on Friday night!

My blessing today is just enjoying the peace and the meaning of Christmas.

PEANUTS Thought for the Day:

TOMORROW December 26th is:

Boxing Day; Day of Goodwill; National Sleigh Day; Kwanzaa; National Candy Cane Day; National Homeowners Day; National Thank You Note Day; National Whiners Day.

Monday’s fake day was National Cracker Day. TOMORROW – be sure to send thank you notes. No Whining! I’m not a fan of candy canes but to each his own. Peace on earth, GOODWILL toward men (and women!). God bless…
