Christmas Eve Eve

Well, today is Christmas Eve Eve, being the Eve before Christmas Eve.  Today my dad wasn't working and he took me to do some last-minute Christmas shopping and I must say, I think we did pretty well.  Man, I can't wait until it's Christmas Eve instead of Christmas Eve Eve and then after that it will be Christmas day and I can't wait!!!!  I'm so excited I could jump up and down. 

Today my mom baked cookies and our house smells really good.  After dinner I get to help make another batch!  Mmmmm, oatmeal chocolate chip.  My mother makes the best cookies.   I can't wait to eat them all (eccept the ones for Santa, of course!). 

Well, only 1 more day until Christmas!

A Day at the Mall

Today we went to the mall while my dad was at work.  We got him, well, I shouldn't say because he might read this.  I guess I can't really say anything we got.  Dangit!

On the way my littlest sister who is about two wouldn't stop saying, "Ho Ho?"  Every time we would have to answer, "Yes, Esther, we are going to see Santa."  So we finally get there, we're waiting in line to see the guy (who by the way actually had a beard!) and she totally freaks out!  Pretty ironic, huh.  No way was my mom going to buy a picture, and the "elf" sure was ticked off.  It was funny.

After that we went to do most of our shopping for our immediate family.  Me and Abigail made presents for mom this year and today we bought each other stuff.  Gee, I can't wait! 

Well, only two more days untill Christmas!
