December, wow!

On the 7th, it was a blessing to surprise my Sunday School Class with Angel datebooks plus a nice hardback book which was humorous. The next day was busy, as I picked up Betty's diabetic supplies, took J&E for groceries, picked up Monkey from ps, then SweetPea went with me to Ham's to eat and she saw Santa. Then I took her to McD's so she could play with some of her friends in the inside play place. On the
10th & 11th, we celebrated Christmas in Apex with the girls Uncle who lives in Florida. We also exchanged gifts with the other Uncle and their grandparents, too.
On the 12th, I managed to get some C. cards in the mail to my family and friends who live away. That was also the day I found out my son was safely home after serving in Afghanistan. On the 14th, we went to our Christmas program at church and the social where we got to see Santa again. The next evening, SweetPea and I went to eat at Ham's and this time she enjoyed seeing Sponge Bob. On the 18th, I took my property tax payment up to the tax office. What a good feeling to have it paid early! The next day, I took SweetPea to play at McD's and my friend, Carol stopped by to give me a C. gift. It was photo coasters and ornaments. On the 21st, we were blessed to hear the Cantata and then attended our Silent Lord's Supper that night. Christmas Eve, we had a delicious meal and exchanged our gifts and I spent the night with my granddaughters.
