Getting in the Christmas Spirit



It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Denver and Spencer with their new
Christmas Penguin!
 
Cutting and decorating the Christmas tree, making ornaments and shopping lists, watching A Charlie Brown Christmas, pulling out winter coats and gloves, putting up Christmas decorations, and baking holiday treats for neighbors, co-workers, and friends. These are a few of the treats of the season.

The boys and I have been enjoying the Christmas season. Denver and Spencer were overjoyed to add an inflatable seven foot penguin to our (less than elegant) holiday decor as well as a four foot Santa. They even glow in the dark! Spencer was so delighted, he exclaimed, "Finally! We're one of those really Christmasy families!"

Yesterday we spent the entire afternoon baking Christmas treats with our friends, Michael, Jill, and Quinn. Okay, the boys didn't do much cooking; but of course, they did a lot of sampling for quality control!

The days zoom along as we work, read, play, and explore. Tonight we'll probably see Santa at the Christmas celebration at Chimney Park. Ho! Ho! Ho!
