Sunday Happenings and Homemade Cocoa

For a short time Sunday morning, we had just a small break in the rain and clouds for my morning walk!

Watching the Sunday morning service from Campus Church (church for Pensacola Christian College where Addie attends).

After church, I took some time to wrap a lot of my gifts. Fig wanted to be involved.

I didn't buy these holiday sets for gifts. Here is an idea to save money. One of these bottles of body wash is $3.97 at Wal-Mart. I bought these gift sets at Fred Meyer for 50% off on Saturday for only $5! Making each bottle now $1.66. Keep your eye out for these deals around the holidays and you can save a lot of money for things you are gonna have to buy anyways throughout the year.

The ending of an era. The last girl requests an American Girl doll for Christmas. Now they each will have one.

Awana Sunday night - game time with T&T group.

Another program that Addie got a chance to be a part of. A Christmas Celebration. It is beautiful and I will try to share links soon for it.

I took a few screenshots trying to get a photo with her in it.

Oh Fig!

We wanted to try and watch a few new Christmas movies this year - Christmas in Connecticut was one. Very cute!

Another Christmas favorite - Fred Claus.

Made homemade hot cocoa and Christmas s'mores.

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

Happy birthday to my husband, Eric! He turns 45 today. I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami. I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno. We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders. I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts 1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz.

(I cut the chicken breasts in half to make thinner.). Season with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and garlic salt until combined.
