Monday And Christmas Is A Week Away!

We know how he feels!

We woke up at 7:00 am and got ready for the day.  Mary went to the gym to start her morning exercise routine while I dropped by TJ’s to get lunch for our visitors.  After completing my errands, I returned to the gym to finish my assessment with the personal trainer.  I aim to reach my goal of 185 pounds through morning workouts with my trainer.

Anthony, My Trainer!

Scout has two little friends down the street, and they sent him a musical Christmas Card this morning.  We played it over and over.  Now, Scout wants to make one!

We expected Bonnie and the kids around lunchtime; they made it at 12:25 pm!    They will be visiting us for a couple of hours before we are off and running again!

We had pizza and lasagne, but we were prepared; we also had mac and cheese, just in case!

Mary received a butterfly house as a Christmas present.  We will find a suitable place to put it and welcome the butterflies.

Did You Know? – Butterflies don’t sleep like people do, but many species rest in groups, a behavior called “roosting.” Some may pause for just a night, while others roost for the entire winter season.  Roosting together helps protect butterflies from predators and preserves energy for long migrations.

Everybody was excited!

They decided they wanted to go into the swim spa, and we thought that a great idea as they would sleep all the way home.

We kept the spa at 95 degrees, so it was perfect!

After they left, we went to Home Depot and purchased a large tarp to cover the empty Christmas boxes on the patio because we were expecting four days of rain.
