Merry Christmas Eve!
I finished up all my wrapping at 1:00 this morning! Woo hoo!!! Alan still has some wrapping to do, but that's totally HIS problem! I got up at 6:30 and made one last batch of cinnamon rolls. The kids rolled out of bed at 8:00 and spent an hour cleaning the house. We went to brunch at IHOP at 10:00. I had pecan pie pancakes, and they were so yummy!!! A couple of last minute stops and we are home for the rest of the day.
I've made fudge, Chex mix, roasted pine nuts, made clam dip, and now I'm getting ready to make a start on Christmas dinner. I need to get my egg nog gelatin done, and my sweet potato casserole. In 2 and a half hours I'll start making baked potato soup for dinner tonight. Once everyone eats, the kids will decorate the gingerbread house for Santa. When they're done with that, we'll grab our munchies, and watch "The Nativity Story" around our fireplace. Once it's over, the kids will open their Christmas jammies, and pose for pictures in front of the tree. Hopefully we'll be able to get them to bed soon after that, and then we'll wait for Santa. Hopefully, he won't take too long, and Alan and I can get to bed early!
I hope you all have the merriest of Christmases! It's been another wonderful year on the DDA thread, and I thank heaven for you each and every day! I hope you all know how much you mean to me! I love you all!!
