Eva got this black jean jacket/hoodie for Christmas. She immediately printed out several star constellations so that she could embroider them on the back of the jacket. did she know how to embroider before Sunday? No. She just decided that that was what she wanted to do and she started doing it. She’s been at this project for the past couple of days and has made a ton of progress on it. she is always very content to just work on a project or read a book or do her own thing. She did spend more time around everyone else this year because of her Loop earplugs. they allow her to be around the chaos and noise and not get overwhelmed. Definitely a good buy for her.

Christmas on the Cape

Later this morning we went to The Cape to visit my parents for a couple of days. My sister Tara and her husband Erik were there and so were my sister Shelby and her kids. The younger cousins all played together nicely. Dylan got a Nintendo Switch for christmas so the kids played a lot of Mario Kart together. I’ve got a ton of games that I can share with him that he may enjoy. We set it up so that the two of us couple play head to head on our respective Switches.

Eva worked hard on her embroidery project. She is embroidering stars on the back of her new jean jacket/hoodie. She worked on it most of the day.

beach time

It was a rather foggy day. We arrived in fog and the kids went to the beach after we had opened our gifts and the stockings. It was so foggy that you could not see the water from the wall.

We enjoyed a very nice meal for lunch and then had pizza for dinner and watched the movie the Christmas Chronicles. That is a good one for the whole family. It was nice for everyone to be able to get together and enjoy our time on the Cape.
