Ten Day Weekend!


We're keeping Christmas simple this year.  I felt like boycotting the holiday completely since Arnold is in Afghanistan and won't be home, but opted instead to just put up a LITTLE tree.  So I carried only two of the twelve boxes of Christmas decorations up from the garage.  Cassie selected a roll of wrapping paper to use for our color scheme and we made ornaments with supplies from our craft room.  I sewed the little felt birds, Cassie made the paper ornaments.  The antique Shiny Brite ornaments were Mom and Dad's.

We're celebrating by spending three days in our pajamas watching musicals.

First up was Jesus Christ Superstar (with bread and wine).

Next we watched Annie (with bread and water).

Dinner of lemon-butt chicken, crash potatoes and green beans was served along with Seven Brides for Seven Brothers.





Hopefully FedEx will come through tomorrow with a delivery of Sweeney Todd and Mamma Mia.  We'll have meat pies when we watch the first one (tomorrow), and Greek chicken with the other (on Thursday).

Merry Christmas!
