The Eve of Advent 2013
Nov. 30th, 2013 08:44 amAdvent starts tomorrow. Which makes sense considering it is December 1st and Christmas is celebrated the 25th of the month.
It is also shop at small business day. Consider hopping over to Peterdavid.net and check out the books we have for sale.
Tonight Caroline is marching with her Girl Scout troop in one of the local town parades of which we have many this year. I am already pulling together everything she is going to wear to keep warm and am doing the same for myself since I am walking with her. I need to make us some Santa Hats for the occasion so there is a trip to the fabric store in my near (next couple of hours) future.
Caroline’s Birthday is in less than a week, her second year in double digits. She is excited for her first sleepover party. It should be fine. I have limited the number of girls to something I know I can handle. We have activities planned along with a couple of movies. We are going to do decorate your own cupcake and probably make your own pizza.
Thanksgiving was nice. My sister in law hosted the event. We had the pleasant meal and spent some time on Friday before heading home. We managed to avoid some serious traffic between the GPS and iPad on I-95 which apparently became a parking lot for about 6 miles.
It will be New Years before I know it. There is one anniversary we are looking forward and back towards at the same time being the day that Peter had the stroke. Once we are past that, I think we might breath a little easier. It has been a year upside down.
I am grateful for things that keep Caroline warm in the cold weather.
