- Took Sasha to the local community association’s Santa Breakfast this morning. (Shea had already eaten by the time we remembered it was on and Pace, being the typical pre-teen he is, said he didn’t want to come.)
- Walked Sasha to a birthday party at one of her kindergarten classmate’s houses in the neighbourhood.
- On the way home, managed to be one of the first in line for a horse-drawn sleigh ride put on by a nearby church whose route happened to pass right in front of our house.
- After my ride, went a bit out of my comfort zone to knock on the door of a local home that puts up an amazing light and music display every year to suggest he might want to turn on his lights since sleighs would be passing by all afternoon and people on my ride were talking about how amazing his house was. Happily, he said he’d be glad to turn on his lights and music even though it was daytime and people wouldn’t get the full effect. (This is a pic of the kids after we walked over last night for a close-up view.)
- Did a huge amount of housecleaning while Sasha was gone and not able to “help” us.
- Picked her up from her birthday party early so we could run to be on the last horse ride of the afternoon.
- Stopped in the church for hot chocolate and cookies then stood by the fire pit they had outside. (“It smells like camping!” Sasha said excitedly.)
- Stopped at a Christmas Craft show in a nearby apartment complex.
- Finished the night out for an annual Xmas supper with a few high school friends.
