My teeth are really clean. I went to the dentist this morning. It sure felt good. After that I went to the Mall of America to pick up some last minute shopping things.
I spent much of the rest of the day wrapping presents and enjoying being at my parent's house for Christmas. My dad does a great job decorating the tree and my mom gets out all her Nativity scenes. She collects them and I have given her many over the years from the places I have lived or visited. There are a lot now.


My brothers and sisters are coming over on December 24th for dinner so dad started to get the table ready today. The bells in the middle of the table belong


to me and my sister. My mom gave them to us when we were little. Mine are the 12 days of Christmas and my sister's are a Nativity scene. My mom is doing some of the cooking that can be done early, including my favorite, rice pudding.
There is a big snowstorm coming this way. It was supposed to begin snowing around four in the afternoon. By 9:00 it was already coming down pretty hard. I am glad I don't have to go out driving!

We're stranded, flightless, in Detroit awaiting the 'next available' flight to get us to Colorado. Hearing about this large snowstorm headed this way is not a good bit of news.
ReplyDeleteI liked all the nativity scenes. Did you buy any tech toys? I got my new camera, and am anxious to get settled to try it out.
