MH had to work this morning so I’m trying to keep the kids entertained.
Actually I’m just trying to keep M from throwing H around like he’s her doll.

We played in the snow and the neighbor kids came over to sled down the hill in the backyard. I bought some snowman molds or target and they were pretty awesome. As soon as we made them E kicked them down. Now in laying down with the hot pad because I have a grumbly tummy. I should be headed to the store but can't bring myself to get food while I feel this way.

I had a fun time with cagoldi at the movie. I just got back from target and the honeybaked ham store. Target had no lines so I felt lucky. The Honeybaked Ham store not so much. They opened at 700 I got there at 800 and all the prime rib in the smaller size was gone. So I had to buy a bigger one. So more of my money is gone.

Let me fill you in on a big flaw in the Dutch system... they don’t sell chocolate chips in regular grocery stores. Specialised baking store sometimes have them, but if they do, the price is usually ridiculous. I could do butter cookies!

Seriously there were traffics wardens managing the street around the store, people are insane. But I’ll manage, don’t worry 😉.

DH made hot spiked cider so we're drinking that with Elf on. Colin is half paying attention and Chase keeps disappearing. He's exhausted and a bit grumpy after such a bad night of sleep, but not terrible.

All the cookie talk reminded me, I was at an expat store the other day and I bought a very small bag of mini mini reeses, pretzels and reeses m&m’s mixed together. The bag was like 50 grams, I could have eaten a dozen more!!!

If you have the ingredients you cold make snickerdoodles or ginger snaps. Those are easy enough and dont require chocolate

We went to the adoption event. The dog I was so fond of online wasn't a match at all. Which is for the best. However there was a dog we all fell in love with. I'm sure she will be adopted by the end of the day. It reminded us though how quickly we knew our last dog was the one and we need to wait for that feeling when it is time. She was a 2-3yo bloodhound, which is not a breed I've ever wanted but she was special. I hope she finds the best home.

I made it to Target by myself and got the last few gifts I needed. All that's left now is picking up photos at Walgreens for the great-grandmas. They are ready but DH is out and I'm not dragging everyone out for them. I have to bake and clean up a bit then we are Christmas ready!

Anyone see Pitch Perfect 3? DD is 7 and is dying to go. It's PG-13. It would be a nice girls day for she and I but I need to find out what the 13 is for. I don't care about bad language so much but is there sex?

Dh and I are watching the voice, nothing beats yelling at the tv together about ugly chosen outfits (seriously those stylists 😖😖😖), people who have never heard of the song ‘in the name of love - u2’ & weird judge comments.

Just put our salt dough ornaments in the oven. We'll decorate them this evening. I need to go to the grocery store, but Cadence didn't want to go this morning. She said we could go tomorrow. Fun. I hope they aren't out of everything. I'll have most of Christmas to myself. Mh and Cadence will go to his sister's for lunch while I stay home to cook dinner...*whispers* binge Netflix....

I've been feeling kinda dizzy the last few days so my anxiety got the best of me at my parent's since I was convinced I was dying, obviously. Feeling a bit better now. We decorated cookies and my sister and BIL are heading over to bake more cookies and get takeout!

I’m having a lazy afternoon at home putzing around cooking and baking while B plays lego, or TMNT or cars, he is all over the place. Julia is trying to wake up after an hour...lol no, child. You are not done napping.
Meanwhile MH is braving the mall to buy Israeli currency as a gift for my Mom’s trip.

Usually, that would be over her head so maybe I will take her this week.
