Ethan:
This has been a really busy day – though it
started out quietly-enough with Tai Chi and breakfast for four while Cassie, Michael,
and May were busy with his family at his house.
The church service and Sunday school included some teen music fun, but
always feels like a return to normal after the extra Christmas services. The sanctuary was full thanks to all of the
visiting guests; and we had extra kids in the Sunday school classes too – which
was why we had fun with crafts instead of moving on to the lessons we’ll be
starting in the New Year.
The weather improved as the rain moved out
of the area this morning, but it is also colder; and all of our visiting family
wanted to head home by early afternoon.
That’s why we had reservations for the noon buffet; and also why Ehlana
and I had most of the afternoon free to play.
Cassie, Michael, and May joined us for a bit of that fun, but not until
after his family was on the way out of town and they’d helped out with the
first round of clean-up at his house while his parents were busy at the Inn
with the buffets.. The cooler weather
and overnight rain was enough to keep us at home and off the trails or
playgrounds today, but we had fun around here while our best friends were busy
with their families today.
It’s been a quiet evening here too that
included a snack dinner after having too much at the noon buffet; a chick flick
movie; and bath or Jacuzzi time for most of us.
That’s an ongoing process for some, but I’m ready for bed; and will take
advantage of the extra available nap time because we will get busier again
heading into New Year’s Eve on Tuesday.
The holiday fun level may have been a bit lower today, but we’re still
happy and have had a great weekend; so this has continued to be an awesome
Christmas holiday!
Ethan – out!

Ehlana:
I love my Jacuzzi; the hot, happy bubbles
have me more interested in enjoying the moment than playing on my computer; and
I’m going to let another day go by with Ethan covering the news while I go with
the micro, non-news update for my side of our journals! ;^)
This is Ehlana Proctor; coming to you live
from what is now my past!
