Made cookies for the neighbors and delivered them.
We have a new member of our family, "robot vacuum". Thank you for the early Christmas present Santa! We debated if we needed this as we already have a couple vacuums, but this thing has been good so far. It has a timer, so everyday at 2pm it comes out and just does it's thing for about 1.5 hours before it goes back to it's base to re-charge. It just goes randomly, so it does miss spots sometimes, and it has gotten stuck several times in the same spot (which makes me wish it was "smarter" to remember and avoid those spots) like my brother said he has one that "maps" the house and then makes the same route every time, but this one seems good. It's the Eufy I saw some blog girl has and recommended. I chose one without a wi-fi and app and all those tech options.
The elves enjoyed some time all piling on Mr. Mark Elf and jumping on him repeatedly from the futon.
This was after cleaning today, (and mind you, it cleaned yesterday too, so it seems like we do need daily vacuuming!) I still use our other vacuum for the carpets, this isn't great on those, but it has been good for our hard floors which do get dusty and crumby quite often.
Nice! I wonder how long it will last with daily 1.5 hour vacuuming?? But it works well for now. '
This weekend we had a little Elf party. Our friend usually hosts one every December and invites tons of friends. With Covid, and quarantining to see her in-laws over Christmas, she didn't host. So we had a little one with just us and two other families. I made a vegan 7 layer bean dip, white chicken chili, cornbread muffins, Rachel made a cheese tray, and Liz made a yummy spring salad with fruit and pecans.
The elves decorated and gorged on sugar cookies.

Fun!
Our babies!
It was nice that we could have a little get together and celebrate time together.
