Holiday Happenings

Yesterday we had a beautiful fresh blanket of snow to wake up to. It was terrific! The little boys played outside while Daddy shoveled and snow blowed the driveway for 2 hours! Then he took the little boys to Grandma's to help with her driveway, I in the meantime, cleaned the house, did some dishes, laundry, read more of War Horse, I am determined to read it before I see the movie and then, best of all, I had a game of Scrabble with Kathleen and Diane! I lost, but it was a great game, lots of fun...although since her car accident, there has been no red wine or guacamole with our games:( We are planning a sleep over scrabble night, then we will be able to partake in the red wine, seems to help us play a little better;)
Today, I am going to take a walk and deliver Erin's flyers, since she is on "vacation" at the Hilton! Then I have a few errands to run and was thinking I might go over to Michaels to find some sort of neat novelty items to use for Adam's birthday. He wants a board game themed party, a fondue meal with his friends and just time to hang out. He even asked if I would leave the house so him and his friends can have the house to themselves...typical teen talk I assume.
We haven't heard from Michaela in a few days, last time we talked was on Christmas day. I am sure things are back to business as usual as they prepare for the New Years Eve Celebrations in London! 2011 has been a good year, all in all, Adam went to China, I went to Paris, Michaela went to London, with all that international travel and gearing up to next summer's European vacation...life is good!
Oh yes, one more stop today with the little boys, to the conservatory for some pictures with the Poinsettas!
Have a wonderful day
