Today Mom made yet another attempt to get us back on track and in the Christmas Spirit. Yes, we worked on some Christmas traditions. First, you need to know what our traditions are. The one we worked on today is our gift bags. Everytime someone comes to our house during the holidays we give them a small bag of treats to take away with them. Everyone from the postlady to the ups guy gets them. So we made our bags today. Okay so they are nothing special. We take ziplocks and put in some butterscotch, strawberry and Mint candies. Then we added a packet of instant cocoa. Normally we make homemade cocoa mix but this week has been so crazy. We also normally make dipped spoons to put in each bag but we haven't gotten that done either. Mom says we can add them later if we have time but for now our plan ziplocks will do.... After that we set up the bar to look Christmasie. (I have no idea how to spell that is it with an ie or a y??) Anyway check it out.... We ended our day listening to the National Finals Rodeo online and wrapping a few gift we had. I also figured out that I can't find one that I got for Dad ... Mom says she will help me look tomorrow. But we didn't call it a day until after we dressed Penny in her costume for the open house ... She is so cute.... From the back ... LOL
