Last Friday we took out traditional light drive.  Each year around Christmas time we bundle up and head to town.  We take a slow drive around letting the little ones see all the lights.  It’s a wonderful sound to hear their excitement.  Two year olds are especially bursting with excitement.  It’s the first time they can really see and enjoy the lights.

Normally we get hot chocolate for our trip, but we were running quite late.  So dh treated us to a pizza supper out.

Saturday some dear friends called to see if they could drop by.  We were all so glad, it’s been far to long since we’d been able to visit!
Latter in the day dh went out to do his Christmas shopping and pick up my birthday cake.

Sunday, yup you guessed it, my birthday. :-)   I had a very nice day.  Hubby got up early with the little ones so I could sleep in.  He made a wonderful breakfast for us.  Then I spend the afternoon making fleece blankets.  Latter on he made my favorite supper.  Tomato pasta, garlic bread and caesar salad.
CBC was running many Christmas movies that night, so we all curled up in the living room to eat and watch.  They were playing I’ll be home for Christmas, Pooh Bears Christmas, The Grinch Cartoon, and Christmas Vacation.
