I hope you are all enjoying your weekend so far! Do you have snow where you are? Nothing here….and very strange!
Thank you for your kind words about my Grandpa in my last post. My family appreciates it so much. We had a great visit with him on Friday and he seems to be doing a bit better than he was earlier in the week. When I asked him how he was doing, he looked at me with a smile and said, “I’m on the mend!” and he was joking with the nurse and very much himself. He hasn’t had much of an appetite, but he loved the Nutcracker cookies I made him. That made me happy.
I ended up baking a couple more batches and giving them as gifts to family this weekend. Eric was not happy to see all the cookies go to another home…
Well, I think it’s time to open some gifts. My niece and nephew have been up since 4:30am, so we’re pretty much torturing them with the wait.
So glad to hear you got to see your grandpa and he was in good spirits! Hope you enjoy opening gifts. It is so much fun when there are kids involved!!!
Merry Christmas! Cookies were great :)
Merry Christmas! A fun thing to do for your grandpa might be to make him a Build-A-Bear (not sure if Canada has those) and add a voice box with some notes from all the grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Just a thought
that’s really cute!
Merry Xmas!!! Montreal is suuuuper snowy today! We’re all very happy about it :)
I’m from Texas! And though some places have snow on the ground here— Not where I am! Merry Christmas!!
Is brown grass an option? Ha! Want me some snow!
hah that’s prob more accurate ;)
Merry Christmas! I hear you on the snow! We have barely a dusting of snow on the ground here (wloo, ON) – It’s kinda sad. The past three weeks dbf was in cali and kept asking if we had snow yet, and kept being so disappointed that we didn’t, and wouldn’t be coming home to it!
We can relate to the earliness. YAAAAAAAWN! Me and my family went to midnight mass at our Catholic church, which started at 11:30 P.M, ended at 2 A.M., and our drive back home mde it so we did not get back until after 3. By the time we went to bed, it was 4:oo in the morning. And with little siblings, sleeping in is impossible. Well, I’m working on four hours of sleep this merry Christmas day :-)
Merry Christmas!
It’s funn you posted this poll because as we drove up the driveway tonight coming home from Chirstmas festivities I said to my husband, “it’s so weird how green the grass still is this time of year!” Not that I want any snow covering it though!
Merry Christmas! Hope you had a wonderful day!
Merry Christmas, Angela! :) No snow here – it’s Louisiana, but was cold and rainy all day! Perfect weather for curling up in the house and drinking hot cocoa.
The weather here is so weird! Last year we had a white Christmas, this year it was in the 50’s (F)!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas Angela :)
Merry Christmas! Glad to hear your grandpa is doing better this week. We got a foot of snow on Thursday, so it was perfect. My mom lives in the mountains and it was beautiful up there!
I’m so glad to hear your grandpa is doing well! I hope you had a great Christmas. :)
Merry Christmas Angela!
no snow here in Southwest Wisconsin – so weird. I was bummed on Christmas Eve, but come Christmas Day, I was a little relieved we did not have to trudge around in it to visit familia! :)
Merry Christmas!
Hope you had a wonderful holiday Angela!! I love the containers for the Nutcracker cookies! Where did you find those? :-)
So glad to hear Grandpa is doing better and loved your cookies!
yayyyy so happy for your grandpa!! Amen to his healing and great attitude. And, 4:30 am?!!! I think I’d go insane even IF I WAS a little child, lol :P
