We had a great, white Christmas this year! This year we drew names and had to make a secret homemade present. My kid's loved this, they were like busy little elves! They couldn't wait to give their present away so we ended up doing it on Christmas Eve. I think this will definitely be a tradition.
I know there is snow in alot of places right now, but for us to have alot of snow, like about 6 inches, and for it to last for a few days is something pretty exciting! My kids love the snow! Cody has spent from the time he gets home from school until after dark the past two days playing in the snow. Bailey and Drey have taken their turns out there too. I love snow, okay not driving in it, but it really makes it feel like Christmas time to me! Maybe we will have a white Christmas after all! Also Thanks Jude for taking in us stranded travelers! It was fun to stay!
We went out on Thanksgiving weekend to get our Christmas trees. Despite getting stuck, we found two perfect trees and had a little fun in the snow.
I love Thanksgiving! Good food, good company what's not to love?! All of my family except for the 3 oldest grandsons were together at my mom's, that made 27 people and it was so much fun. I am not sure if this is normal or not but we always end up with tons of pies, this year was no exception with thirteen pies.
