Merry Christmas Eve from the van!

Not a lot of work progress today. I made a couple trips to Ace for supplies anyway because I thought they might miss me. We worked a little bit on the walls and we will be more ready to put up a wall in the next couple days. I also have the final supplies to install the toilet cabinet.

Sara spent much of the day making cookies and cinnamon rolls.

We also decorated the van. We put lights on the tree and hung a string of copper LED lights. Sara put up her insulated window covers (including material we brought back from Tanzania years ago).

The van looks beautiful…so we are going to spend the night here. That’s right, this is my first blog post from inside the van! It is not technically our first night sleeping in here, but it is our first night in a real bed (i.e. two mattress toppers from Ikea).

The tree fell over on Kenai while we were setting up so he was ready to hit the road without us.

Poor Tanzi got all excited to go for a walk and then slipped on the ice. She smacked her chin really hard and it was bleeding so she got extra sympathy and was allowed to spend the afternoon on my parents’ couch.

Now we are all tucked in the van for the night hoping Santa Claus will bring us a finished galley cabinet in the morning!
