Special Time with Family!

After Thanksgiving we picked out our tree for "Christmas 2011". The kids had so much fun picking out the "first tree they saw" and it was really a nice tree so we went with the first one we picked up.
I really wanted to go somewhere and cut down a tree but we once again went to Lowes and found such a great tree plus very cheap. Maybe next year we will start cutting down our own.
Andy was busy this year hanging up lights on the house and our large pine trees in our front yard. He got it finished before this cold weather came.
The girls also decorated the "gingerbread house" for the elves to sleep in at night. They did such a great job and what a fun craft for them to keep busy with.
Many more Christmas fun before the day is here:
1.Make cut out cookies with the kids wearing fun aprons
2.Going ice skating St. Paul and looking at all the amazing lights
3.Going to have breakfast with Santa at downtown Macys
4. Watching the kids enjoy the Christmas lights and sledding outside
5. Make some homemade gifts for family and friends
6. Christmas dance gift exchange
And many more..........
Hope your December is going well, and enjoy every minute with your family!
