Today was a dark rainy day and we stayed home all day. I love rain so it didn’t bother me at all. We wrapped a few gifts and made Rice Krispies Treats and Bethany even put the lights on the tree in my room. Our special thing for today was just the easiest thing I could think of and since it was such a rainy day I decided everyone could watch a movie. So, they watched How The Grinch Stole Christmas. They thought it was a great choice. This is their third Christmas movie and I admit that today I just took the easy way out.
It was a nice day though. We spent our day being kind of lazy and catching up on the little things that needed to be done – and frequently checking my Amazon app to see if there was any change and if all my gifts would arrive on time. I also had a friend come by with her daughter and her beautiful new baby boy. We visited while the kids watched the movie.
We read this evening and everyone said it was such a nice relaxing day. I didn’t even pick up my camera today so I just tried to find a picture from yesterday to fill in.
Nothing better than a rainy day with snacks and a holiday movie! Maybe even a cozy blanket 🙂 These days are flying by! It will be Christmas in the blink of an eye! I’m doing the Amazon thing too, hoping it all comes in time!
I do agree. I love a rainy day and it was so relaxing.
