Merry Christmas Eve!

What's everyone doing today/tonight?

Re: Merry Christmas Eve!

  • Right now I'm making a red velvet cake for tomorrow.  Later this afternoon we'll be heading up to York for dinner with H's family.  They will try to make us stay over, as is our annoying tradition, but we will come home tonight so that we can wake up on Christmas morning in our own house.
  • I'm trying to get myself motivated to go make some brownies at the moment. We are heading up to my moms, she's having a lunch/dinner. We always eat homemade strombolis for dinner on Christmas Eve. The kids get their gifts from my parents.

    After that we have to go to my SIL's house, the kids get their gifts from my IL's.

    Then we finally come home, make reindeer food, leave out cookies and milk, open up a gift of new jammies, and a Christmas book, and spend the night watching A Christmas Story.

    I'm at work, although I'm hoping I can skip out of here at a reasonable hour today.  Tonight we have a dinner at Ben's great aunts house and then home to sleep!!

  • Making pretzel salad for Christmas Eve dinner at my brother's house. My brother and his family do their gifts from my Mom and us tonight. Then home to drink wine and open gifts with the hubby so we don't have to rush through it tomorrow.

    I love them! She's getting capriottis for lunch, I'm hoping the strombolis are done before I have to go to SIL's!

    Just when I thought all of my wrapping was done....

    I worked for a bit today, and now am sitting on my duff reading blog/emails. I cleaned our entire house a couple of days ago, but I have to clean the laundry room. I'm planning on doing that today, then I have to finish knitting the last hat I'm making for tomorrow morning. We have church tonight, but after that, nada. I'm happy about it because frankly, stuff has been cray around here lately.
  • Prepping food for tomorrow. Just made my first homemade lasagna. Heading to my parents around 7 for lots of Christmas Eve craziness. I love every minute of it!! :)

    Merry Christmas Eve! We just got home from my sister's where we did Christmas with my family. Now I'm relaxing on the couch before our marathon day tomorrow. All of the presents are under the tree, the fireplace is going, A Christmas Story is on TV, the baby is asleep and Shawn is snoring next to me. All is right in the world.... ;)
