So we decided that today was really the first day of vacation. Sundays are generally somewhat relaxing and rejuvenating, but since the hubs worked yesterday, it was officially our first day of vacation.
My morning was pretty busy with 2 choir practices in the morning before church, then 3 separate numbers I participated in during our church meeting. (Never singing, mind you. Conducting or playing piano.) But it all turned out great and was nice.
The afternoon was capped with naps from all (but the hubs), followed by prepping apples for making applesauce. The hubs and I made (simultaneously) applesauce, banana bread, banana pudding (with instant vanilla pudding mix) and stir fry for dinner. Every now and then the hubs gets on these types of rampages. It seemed chaotic at first, but the kids more or less left us alone, so it wasn't so bad.
Then we capped off the night going to a Christmas play at a local church. It was quite the production, with 2 sets, songs, and choreography. The family was pretty amused by how closely Moose paid attention when he was choosing to listen. At one point it mentioned that everyone dies, and he says "I don't want to die." So we had a small chat about that. Then a character said "stupid" and he reminded me that we don't say that word. As the characters shared that Jesus is what Christmas is about, he made notice and then when another character said it was about money, he made sure to point out that he was wrong. Christmas is about Jesus. I told Moose that he was right, and the character was wrong. Monkey basically played on the stairs next to us the entire performance.
Tomorrow should be a nice vacation day. The hubs is taking the kids to the store first thing to do a major shopping trip. I'm going to be at home sewing. :) Then tomorrow evening is caroling at my bro-in-law's house. And yes mom, I'm going to make the artichoke dip. :)
