Everyone is eagerly anticipating Christmas around here. We've now finished up school, and it's a good thing, since we have a lot of things to finish up before Christmas, including Emry's upcoming birthday!
Ok, so Acorn is probably not looking forward to Christmas. :)
I've made a few gifts, including this purse for my littlest niece:
The rabbit continues to amuse everyone. Lately, he's taken to chilling in the rocking chair:
And I've started on cookies and etc, including these peanut butter balls and turtles, both great favorites!
The countdown is on, and we've got plenty to do! But we are excited. The boys finally learned to sing "Joy to the World" decently. Emry has mostly learned to follow along with reading the words and singing to Christmas carols, so he was able to do a lot of the singing last Sunday when he, Gyunay, and I went caroling with a group from church to the assisted living place near here. We were going to visit the nursing home, too, but they had Covid, so we had to pray for them instead of with them. Still, it inspired our youth director to plan on having some game days with the youth groups and the nursing home and assisted living home, so that will be very good.
I have been doing much better overall, since the iron infusions and thyroid medicines have both kicked in, but I had a major setback after caroling. My lungs can't handle that much singing yet, but I'm now doing better, just in time for Christmas. So no more caroling for me for now, but I can still sing a little. :)
