Super Late Update

OK so I am soooo sorry that this update is so late but with Christmas and shopping things have been really busy!
Last week, my sister and I made Christmas Chocolate Creations and sold them to neighbors. We made together $13! I made $8.50 and she made $4.50 from what she made. We both gave half of our earnings to a charity and the rest we kept for more supplies. It was a lot of fun. I spend over two hours because I was making santas on pretzels using red and brown chocolate. First I had to put the red for Santas hat and suit and let it harden and then add the brown and sprinkles.
Monday we did schoolwork (shocker huh... LOL) well anyway, I did my Chemistry, Geometry, English, Bible Study and History. I did a research paper on President Nixon & Watergate. It was very interesting and there is a lot of mystery in that case.
Tuesday was the begining of my dad's vacation. He won't be going back to work until January 5! He has sooo many vacation days left over that he didn't use yet so we will have lots of time to enjoy together. I babysat on Tuesday from 3:15 to about 4pm or so for a neighbor while she went to get her older kids from school because her youngest was napping.
Wednesday we did some house cleaning. I did some of my homework (about half a days work) and helped my mom with baking cookies.
Thursday was the big day of my younger sisters Christmas Choir Concert. She was so excited but a bit nervous too. She did really well. Thursday morning my mom took me out for breakfast and we split a delicious egg and cheese croisant sandwich and two muffins (apple and blueberry). I enjoy speding alone time with my mom because I can talk to her about anything.
Friday, I don't remember what we did! This is so strange but I just can't remember..... I will let you all know if I remember soon.
Saturday I seriously slept in! I didn't get out of bed until 10am! Of course I hadn't fallen asleep until about midnight the other night so that may have been why. We went to the chiropractor and then to a grocery store just down the street. We bought some delicious danishes because they are actually organic! I didn't know that they sold such a thing. : D
Today we are leaving for my Great Aunt Lynn's for her Christmas Party so I have to go. I will tell you all about the party when we get back!

Blessings and Joy,
Butterfly
