Holiday baking Time to catch up on holiday baking. Each of the kids chose a recipe to make: Laura made lemon shimmer cheesecake bars with little help on my part. Colin helped make sugar cookies which we will decorate tomorrow to look like Santa.
Sharing the shopping helping Laura and Colin both wanted to carry the basket at PetSmart. Sharing was the best solution.
Lots of playing to do The kids were really excited (and a little overwhelmed) about all the generous gifts. Thank you everyone and Merry Christmas!
School Holiday Skating Party Laura and Colin went skating with their school last week. Laura is getting much more confident on her skates Colin has the outfit and the anticipation down. He was ready to go! Until we got on the ice. 5 min standing still next to the door was all he had in him this trip. Not a single step.
Finishing up Christmas cards. Colin is helping finish the Christmas cards by signing his name in a few.
Girls’ Night Out Laura and I enjoyed a fantastic night at the theatre! We saw the Nutcracker, met the dancers, and are now settled into a hotel for the night.
