Winter Wonderland


Look what we woke up to today. The neighbor grandchildren really had fun. I stepped out the front door and took two pictures and then went to the back door and Woody swept the steps off and I stood there and took several pictures of the kids throwing snowballs and of them sledding. We haven't had much snow in the last couple of years so they were really excited to have even this small amount.

Woody went to the Post Office and the library this morning. Then he took care of Joy and Esther-Noel while Nathan, Kathy, Graham, Abigail and Elijah went Christmas shopping. He made Tahitian Treats (a yummy no-bake confection made with dried apricots, coconut, sweetened condensed milk and then rolled in confectioners sugar) to take to Sunday School in the morning. He has started working "the puzzle" of putting all the boxes back in our Christmas closet. We are both having sinus/allergy problems (at least that is what we hope it is). He has been taking Benadryl...I woke up in the middle of the night with an allergic reaction to something...so took some Benadryl...so that makes for a bit of a "sleepy day." Woody has also read and watched football this afternoon and evening. I have been trying to get going in my sewing room (which included some shopping this aftenoon for some needed items)...Grammy's workshop needs to gear up for several items that are needed by the time that our family celebrates Christmas together. I got a bit of a reprieve tonight as we were going to have our family Christmas on December 19...but we had forgotten the practice for the children's musical that Graham and Abigail have to attend...so now we are having it on December 24...a few more days to "create" and get ready!
