Christmas – Day Two

The babies went shopping to use some of their Christmas money. Dart guns, art kits, a digital watch, a Doc Mc”Muffins” medical bag and Mercy got some stuff but it was all over the house before I could see. I think there were some bath crayons. Oh and Esther also bought a jar of honey and a bottle of wine. I’m hoping the wine was for me!

Shopping wore Ephraim out.

Favorite event of the day: Mercy pulled the Christmas tree over. That was an exciting and watery first for us.

Today was the Feast of St. Stephen. We watched a DVD that came with a book I got a few years ago, Good King Wenceslas with Jane Seymour and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. It was quite good and I think we may have a new St. Stephan’s day family tradition.

I also made a mincemeat pie. I’ve never had mincemeat but a friend from church gave me a jar of it so I thought I might as well make a pie!

After 8 inches of snowfall in the morning the sun came out and the roads were made passable. Phil was able to come home for supper. I know he was glad to not have missed frozen chicken patties and fries!

This morning we woke up to a beautiful snow fall! And here I was pouting that we wouldn’t have a white Christmas.
