Since it's only a little over a week until Christmas, I can't really show pictures of everything I've done, but here is a bit of what's been going on at our house:
|
The youth activity this week was making 'gingerbread' houses (no actual gingerbread was harmed in the making....). Danny proved himself a genius and simply constructed a 'swimming pool' and then poured his entire bag of mini M&M's in it - thus bypassing the fiddly step of picking the good stuff off and eating it. We were able to go straight to the eating. |

I was able to earn some big brownie/matrimonial points with Steve by making a thermal slip for his mother. It's just like a regular slip, but lined with fleece. I would have gotten it done sooner, but when I asked Steve to find out what type of slip (half or full), he came back with the wrong answer: three quarters. I then packaged said slip AND went to the post office today and queued up to send it off. |

On Wednesday Alex finally got the wires removed from his mouth! That evening we canned 18 cans of stuff in #10 cans: Beanland soup mix, red lentils, sugar and powdered sugar. We had to get it done Wednesday night because I only had the can sealer checked out until Thursday noon. Yes, we had it a full week and yes, we waited until the last possible moment to use it. What's your point? |

Thermal slip? That is genius, I need one for our frosty church building.
