happy christmas eve!
we are visiting with family in wisconsin for the holiday. we had a good drive over here. the first night was rough. our little one was awake from 12 - 5 am and we could not get her back to sleep. we ended up heading out into the 18 degree weather around 4:30 am and taking a drive around the city to finally get her to sleep. it worked. and last night was significantly better, so things are looking up.
this afternoon i made our family's traditional christmas dessert. it's a 9x13 pan with a layer of oreo crust, then a layer of peppermint ice cream, topped by homemade chocolate sauce. yum. my girl and i had a great time smashing all the oreos this morning and then i put it all together this afternoon while she's been napping. it's not the healthiest of desserts...but if there's a day we can splurge, i think it's christmas.
tonight will be our little family gift exchange and tomorrow morning there will be a service of lessons and carols at church. how exciting to again be celebrating the birth of our savior.
merry christmas!
