Busy weekend per usual. I finally decided that I had to re-do the bathroom ceiling (as the paint was peeling and flaking and looking a mess). It involved scrapping, sanding, patching, priming, caulking, and painting. Way more work than I ever anticipating and beyond the scope of my home improvement skills, as I always stay way clear of anything related to drywall. Now that it’s all finished, it ain’t pretty, but it looks better than it did!
On Saturday, we put up the tree and decorated for Christmas. We were supposed to go to the Williamston Light Parade, however, Dave had a cold and it was pouring rain. We stayed home, ate pizza, and watched a movie. Earlier in the day, Noomi and I did venture out to the grocery store, but that was about it. For some reason Noomi will hardly let me out of her sight and insists on going with me everywhere.
On Sunday, Ajax made the family waffles for breakfast (all by himself with only minimal input from me). They turned out great and he was so proud! We cleaned up the house, did some laundry, and then Grandma Mary and Grandpa Gordy came over to visit. We went up to The Commons and donated some toys. The kids also got to decorate gingerbread houses and see Santa. Afterwards we all went out to dinner before heading home.
That night the kids were playing and I heard Noomi say (as she swooped a robot dinosaur/bird down over Ajax’s head) – “this is baby Jesus and I am the Queen of God!” Ajax rolled his eyes. We don’t know much about religion in this house.
