After Adam worked half of a day we had our family Christmas at home. Lily is now a super pro at ripping into presents! Then, we went to my parents house to hang out. We played couples scrabble with Steve/Lori, Becky/Mark, and Adam/Patty as teams. We were winning the whole game until Steve & Lori won on a ridiculous word. We celebrated Dad's and Lori's birthdays tonight with a big yummy birthday cake that the kids helped decorate by adding sprinkles! We also made divinity which is a type of white fudge candy. Once you get through all the first steps you then have to stir and stir and stir until it's the right consistancy. Of course the longer you stir the harder the mix gets. We always take turns stirring and try to stir as much as you can until you have to pass it on. I'm pretty terrible at stirring because I'm weak but Lori and Dad are pros. After that we did some other Christmas prep before going home.
