a family project

in progress...

she's five

and we celebrated!

two

 months to go...

the first real snowstorm of the year

....started in the kitchen...

making its way to the livingroom...

with the help of  a few sparkly little lights

`

the snow plows won't be here till spring to clear up its aftermath...

being "snowed in" isn't such a bad deal after all!

where's the hot cocoa and whipped cream?

preparing for a big birthday

this year we are doing things a little differently...

each of the kids took 24 paper circles,

decorated them,

and wrote little "gifts" they could give to 

Baby Jesus

for His

birthday this year.

as the pull one out of their envelope and do the task on the back,

they staple them to the string in the living room and make a paper garland.

i ran out of colored paper so we used white,

but

i think im going to have to have them refill their envelopes due to their avid  desire to

"clean the toilet" "make mama's bed" "clean out the fridge" "fold the laundry" "dust the cobwebs" etc.

the next paper garland will be colored and i can't wait to show you  how beautiful it will be

please tell me

i'm not the only person on the face of the planet, who's advent wreath has already looks like this.

thanks.

yes, on day three of advent, our poor pink candle bit the dust.

it underwent extensive surgery.

thankfully,

surgery was a success

sort of.
