3 of us were up until midnight decorating xmas cookies. made them from scratch this year attempting to avoid the typical “blob” syndrome.

santa

weird Covid visit with santa, including face masks, a plexiglass barrier, and a face shield. biggest disappointment was no stuffed animal gift this year. picked up an unremarkable dinner to eat back at home.

hanging out

still missing her friends, so spent a few hours with Charlotte Friday night. checkers, chess, drawing, dress-up, and performed a song – too funny.

up & decorated

crazy time at Home Depot on Monday trying to pick up a tree, as they only had Charlie Brown ones left. convinced them to sell me a really nice one on display, then had an ordeal taking it down and getting it ready to drive home. anywho, finally up, and finished decorating it tonight with Mira. time to wrap some presents…

shopping

headed into the Loop with Mira after school and made our way to the Water Tower and the Lego store to score a chess set. picked up dinner and dessert from Magnoila on the way back.
