Food Day

Coldness again.

Puck cuddled with his new little stuffed dog during church. OLeif had bought it for him at Walgreen’s the previous evening on the ride home. Puck had been so happy.
“Thanks, Daddy!” he exclaimed. “Thanks for the dog, Daddy! Thanks, Daddy! He’s so cute dog.”

That late afternoon, Mom and Dad were returning from Branson. So after Carrie had mixed up cheese ravioli in a sauce of her own creation, and biscuits, all prepared to a Sunday morning dance mix (mostly in Spanish and Turkish), it was time to clean.
Then the boys surprised everyone and brought back Little Caesar’s and sodas for a second lunch.

After Puck’s nap, Rose bundled him up in a blanket and turned on her old Christmas movies for him. She then gifted Collette her pair of red Converse chucks, for which Collette was very happy.
“Like Doctor Who’s,” said Rose with a grin.

By four-ten, Collette and Francis had returned from the grocery store with cheese taquitos and pizza rolls (at Dad’s request), rainbow sherbet, and moose tracks ice cream.
And as they pulled in the driveway, Mom and Dad were just back from a nice trip, and were ready for the family Christmas photo. Although Puck had to be bribed to sit still and smile by handfuls from the three bags of gourmet popcorn which Mom and Dad had brought back: cheese, caramel, and chocolate drizzle.

And to end the evening, Carrie showed Elf disco and hip-hop music videos that she had created for Uncle Mo and Aunt Petunia and Mom and Dad, which had even Dad laughing pretty hard.
