Xmas Eve

Christmas eve started with coffee quick before S, Mom and I jumped in her truck and headed to town to Paetz's to watch the kids open some presents after 9. Shaina joined us around 10 then she was off to train Sharon at 11. We were off not long after to fill Mom's truck with fuel on our way over to Britt's for her condo viewing. It was a short stop before we headed back to the ranch.

Had to stop quick and put the slinky back in place LOL

S jumped in his skid steer and quickly rolled out a bale to the herd and a partial to the two in the barn paddock while I started to make butternut squash soup with the roasting portion then a quick making us a sandwich. I ran to the gate quick to pick up my paint parcel that was delivered.

After his Tuesday nap, S and I routered the valet piece I had made double checking design with B who had just arrived.

nice right?

S plowed the road with again fog rolling in late afternoon. Shaina picked up a few items we need before getting back to join us. I finished the black waxing of the painted portions from yesterday, painted the newly routered piece and left to dry. By end of the night I had another coat and the black wax on it; complete.

A fire was built and the evening was spent eating the yummy soup and appetizers (B made a great nacho dip too) and playing some games. Kaylin's plane was delayed but made up time getting back to Calgary. She ran to their home, showered, loaded gifts and made it to the ranch to join us around 10:30. B and Cooper headed back to town later on to sleep there for their first condo Christmas.
