Hello to everyone! This week we started getting things looking a lot more like Christmas! On Monday night for FHE we went and got our Christmas tree! We tried out Costco this year, and the tree is awesome! It was a great choice. And as usual, we tied the tree to the top of Tuna (our '99 Corolla), which got some smiles and points on the drive home. Once we got home it was time to put up the lights and ornaments! Here's the final project.
Friday night for date night Monica wanted to make some new ornaments. We made some snowmen out of tea candle lights. Here are the final products. Can you guess which ones I made? Maybe just one of them?
And here they are on the tree. We didn't really leave them this bunched together, they were just more photogenic this way.
On Saturday Monica had a training all morning, so I surprised her and made this little stable for her nativity! I also did a lot of cleaning around the house, which is what I think Monica really appreciated.
On Saturday night we decided to watch How the Grinch Stole Christmas together before Brooke went to bed. It was her first Christmas movie! And also the first video we openly let her watch. She LOVED it! In case you haven't seen the video yet I have a link to it here. She loved it for the first while, but then her attention span caught up with her. She did make it all the way through without having to go to bed, but we had to play with her a whole bunch to get there.
And I think we're basically caught up! Tonight we're having Thanksgiving dinner. We decided to make one because we didn't have any left overs from actual Thanksgiving. Flying is SO HARD!
Hope everyone is doing great out there! Have a great week.
