So happy today is the last day of school before Christmas
break!! It sure was a busy one for me though!! It started off the
usual way with getting everyone fed and dressed and all lunches
packed and everyone on the bus!!! Then C and I hung out for a
bit while I cleaned the kitchen a bit...well straightened it up a
bit. Then I painted the clothes pins I'm taking to Ohio with me and
half the spools I'd need, I ran out so it was off to town we went! I got the van washed.
I
got whipping cream at Giant Eagle and Spools for JoAnn's and also
C talked me into another new nutcraker - a piper this time!!
Then it was home to finish painting the spools and getting lunch
ready!! Then I got my roll baked and got the filling in it and stuck
it in the fridge. Then I showered and quickly got the vinyl cut out and
on the ornaments for the grandma's and aunts!!! Then C and I
headed to the school to catch the end of the Christmas program and to
pass out cookies & milk to all the students!
We helped with B
wing and C even got to hang out with Gman in his class room
and watch a little bit of the movie!! Then it was home to make my
pecan pie bars and to help the kids finish wrapping their presents!
Then it was time to get dinner ready - scrambled eggs and sausage. I
had an egg sandwich and "REAL" sausage!!! Then I helped
clean up the kitchen a bit. Then I finished up the ornaments. Got the
kids settled watching their movie, Elf. Got the sauce made for their
treat and then served them their Chocolate Peppermint Roll!! They
devoured it and so did I!!! I started packing the suitcase. Got the
boys their medicine and breathing treatments and then off to bed with
them all!!! The girls wrapped the ornaments for me. I started some
laundry and now daddy got home at 9PM and I am finishing up some last
minute gathering while I type this and drink my mimosa!!! It's off to
Ohio tomorrow bight and early!!!
