The Happy Elves have been busy in my kitchen making lots of yummy Christmas treats these days! They can hardly wait for Christmas to come, so we're trying to keep them busy doing good things so they (and I) don't go crazy.
I think I have made more Christmas treats this year than I ever have in my life! Adam has been out of school since Thanksgiving with a pesky case of pneumonia that just doesn't seem to want to go away! Sometimes he feels good, and then we cook. The rest of the time he just lies around feeling miserable. I can't wait till he gets better, and neither can he.
Here is one very happy elf---you are looking at the winner of the elementary school's Geography Bee! Way to go Aubree! I couldn't believe how hard the questions were. I didn't know the answers to most of them myself. Aubree says she won because of a "lucky guess," but her teacher reminded her that it was an "educated guess." Now she goes on to take the state geography test. Good luck, and happy studying Aubree!
