Boxing Day

I hope everyone had a safe and happy Christmas day with family and/or friends.

Our cake came from Jones Bakery in Caledonia. The cake was awesome but there was a small problem. Two pieces were cut out around 2 yesterday afternoon before anyone arrived. Beth instigated it and I went along.

We laughed a lot during the game. Beth wrapped presents like Russian Dolls. There were 12 boxes within boxes - each wrapped. A pan was being passed around with dice. If you rolled doubles you got to try to unwrap the present. But before you could go at it you had to put on a hat, scarf and oven mitts. Makes it a bit harder to unwrap. The ladies went first. Then the men went. We laughed and laughed. It turns out that some people are more competitive than we thought.

Our house is mostly back to order except for the red fluff from the feather boa Beth bought for the game. It is everywhere. Upstairs, main floor and downstairs.

Every year Beth gets a puzzle from Cathy and the Christmas puzzle has been started.

Most of my day was spent knitting. I am almost to the ribbing on my sweater.

Lucy was so good yesterday. She laid in the corner for most of the evening.

It's only 6:30 and I'm thinking about bed. I should have had a nap this afternoon. Don't forget that our Boxing Week sale starts tomorrow in the store.
