Do you like my Christmas countdown? I stole it from Family Fun. It's not on the mantle though. I'd have to have a higher mantle and matching socks. I think I'll try and collect Christmas socks in January.
I've been crazy busy. Our Home and School did a pasta fundraiser and it was going well so we decided to do one for our church as we are sponsoring a refugee family of 11. I've learned that when you suggest a project, the project is yours. :) The pasta was ordered Thursday, arrived Tuesday and I sorted the 180 bags during nap time. Getting it out of the house tonight.
Tonight is a birthday party for Jesus at the church. I made individual cakes for the kids to decorate.
Lots left to do. Sort and wrap the kids gifts and pick up a couple of items. I know, I know Helen, I should have it wrapped already but I need to visualize it. I need a meal plan and list of holiday recipes. Saturday, a friend is taking the kids for a couple of hours to make sugar cube castles. I think she's crazy but since I can't remember us going Christmas shopping together, I won't tell her.
I have my brother and sil's gift ready to mail to Atlanta. Cara is taking it to mail in the US. Faster and cheaper. I need to pick up some more Christmas flannel to make more pillowcases as gifts. Secret Santa gift is ready for the mail tomorrow. My mom's gift is done. Mil's is thought of, just need to get it. Sisiters are done. Nieces and nephews, just about. Fil, no idea. Teachers, need to wrap.
BTW, I ordered two Knights of The Lunchtable; The Dodgeball Chronicles to donate to ds's school on behalf of his teacher and TA. They came damaged from Scholastic. I called the company on Friday and replacements arrived on Tuesday. They have a 100% guarantee.
