Christmas Check-List

We made a Christmas list a few days before the Christmas Break to make sure that we all got to do a few things that we "dreamed" we would do over the short 10-day Christmas break that the boys got from school. (That is only 7 school days free)

This was our list, and it turned out that we did every single item, except one:

Make a Christmas Treat  - I ended up making Grandmother Parker's Orange Tea Rolls

Swimming/Rock Climbing at the Gym
Sledding
Get Aaron bigger ski boots, and get everyone a Ski Pass for Christmas. (We went to Gunstock)

Play with Sphero & do programming on Sphero
Time on the computer to play prodigy & do coding
Legos
Strawberry Banke in Portsmouth  (we did an historic home tour, and had deli sandwiches on New Years Eve)

Nesmith Library - attended a Christmas Magic Show
See Star Wars Rogue One in the theatre

Attend Kirsti's musical Christmas party
Attend the work Christmas party
Attend the Christmas Eve party at the Painters

Attend church Christmas service, and Katie sing in the choir
Drink hot cocoa and read Christmas stories

Play board games (especially "Life" says Aaron)
Skype with family
Hiking - the boys and I went on a very memorable hike on the frozen Beaver Pond.  It was beautiful!

The one item we didn't quite complete was Scott's goal of finishing 2 papers during the break.  Sorry darlin'!
