Christmas Adam

"True happiness consists not in the multitude of friends, but in their worth and choice."

A new tradition was started today.
My friend came over with her 2 children and we spent the whole day baking!
I didn't realize how much I love to bake and try new recipes.
We had a lot of fun - especially our children.
We decided to call this day
Christmas Adam
since it is the day before Christmas Eve.
So now we have several kinds of cookies, glazed almonds, and peanut brittle to share on Christmas day.

Only 2 days left until Christmas.
Tomorrow we will go to mass in the afternoon.
Two of our children will sing in the choir.
We will show our children the beautiful manger scene and take a family
picture up by the altar.
After, we will take our children out for dinner.
It is the one day a year we take them all out to a "nicer" restaurant.
It's nice because restaurants are not crowded on Christmas Eve.
Then we will come home and hang up our stockings, sprinkle reindeer food on our lawn, then go online to check where Santa is before heading to bed.
