Decking the Halls

Our Thanksgiving guests were barely gone before the kids started begging to decorate.  
Some took it very seriously.


Other's set up in speed round fashion in order to get on to playing with new toys!


While others skipped decorating and used the tree as a turtle shell :)


The kids exchanged gifts with Grandpa Posey and Grandma Carol while they were in town for Thanksgiving. Carol is a fabulous gifter and all three of the kids LOVED their gifts.

Here Jake (and helpers) are setting up his Venus Fly Trap.


Paige is prepping to use her new COTTON CANDY machine!!



Everything is ALWAYS interrupted by craziness and fun!
Paige is Queen of "Let's Get the Party On!" so add Daddy to the mix and giggles and squeal are a normal occurance at our house!  Daddy is well loved! :)






Connor had the distinct honor of putting up the start this year!





Paige is enamored with the tree. She has made more forts and played more interacting play with Barbies & ornaments than I even remember her doing as a toddler. When in doubt...she's by the tree!







Making Advent wreaths...





The end result...


Sewing has been the activity of choice lately. Jake is making a Zebra pillow and it is AMAZING!!
I don't have a shot of the end product, but will be sure to post one soon, because it's pretty cool!


Here we have Fisher Price meeting Willow Tree.
I loved the imagery here and come help but think, 
"O Come Let Us Adore Him!"


More evidence of my previous mentioned fascination with playing by the tree!



Connor's gym had a little craft fair and we found these little Nesting Doll clippies!  So cute!
