8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”
Friday Night we made gluten free cookies, we still have to decorate them. They didn't turn out so great, very dry and I think it's because I had to add coconut flour to roll them out. So the hunt is still on for a yummy gluten free cookie recipe. That was pretty much it for that day.
Saturday after naps we decided to head downtown and see SANTA!! We get there to see a super long line, after 20 min of waiting we moved 5 feet. This wasn't going to work. So we opted to head to dinner instead, heart crushed!!
After dinner we met with my mom and gramma to ride a horse drawn carriage through the park to look at lights they set up.
After that we went back to see Santa, the line wasn't as long so I took Max to the bathroom to get changed (I put her in warm clothes for the park). Mondo stood in line. Mackenzie was ok with talking to Santa and even excited but, when we put her in his lap for a picture, that was a big H-E double hockey sticks NO!!
After dinner we went to Old Navy to do some shopping and I scored a pair of maternity shorts for 50 cents!!! More on that in a later blog post. Yes, I think they are worthy of their own blog post!!
Sunday we went to church, Costco for lunch, home to watch the Chargers lose (come on chargers get your act together). After dinner we decorated the Christmas tree, 1/2 way through I started having Braxton Hicks contractions so we stopped. No pics of the tree since it's not done.
And that was our weekend. I hope you had a great weekend!
Don't forget to enter the drawing for a free pair of leggings. Here is the link again. I will announce the winner on Christmas Eve, drawing ends next week!!
Until tomorrow,
Dorinda
