It's Starting to Look a lot Like Christmas!!!

We were needing some help with some ideas as to what the boys were wanting 'Santa' to bring them, so we took them right to the source.

Now to go shopping!

I was having trouble getting into the decorating spirit around here since we plan on heading back to Creston this year. But I do like the outside decorated - maybe because Mark does all the work!! Take a look...

And it is that time of year again that Mark starts to sing the Hippopotamus song. Well, last year on boxing day I found this little beauty..........he got his wish!
Here is our tree.
I had planned to put more bows on it today, but when I got home from dropping the boys off at school this morning, Kia got a hold of them and ate them. I will need to be on the look out for more bows on boxing day.

While pulling out all the Christmas stuff, I forgot I picked up another small tree. I decided to put it up downstairs for my clients. Carter helped me decorate it yesterday as well. Looks pretty good!!

So, we are getting there. Christmas is only 19 days away and we have meetings, Christmas parties, hockey, family fun nights at the school, baking, crafting and a whole lot of wrapping still to get finished. I hope the holidays allow for a few naps!!
