Trimming the Tree









Grace and Will were very into helping with the ornaments. The lights took forever and Will lost patience. I ended up putting him down for a nap and he awoke to trim the last of the tree. He was thrilled. Still no front curtains, although I did purchase a curtain rod. It's all good. Living in a fish bowl. Once I get curtains it will feel strange to have them closed.
This year Will is old enough to be really excited about Santa and Christmas. We went to our local city's Christmas party. The kids got to go on a hayride, roast marshmallows, eat scones with honeybutter and hot chocolate and make some crafts. We saved seeing Santa for last. When we finally made it to the beginning of the line, at 8pm, they told us it would be another hour wait. We left and the kids were very sad. I told them Santa would be at the mall, and we could write him a letter etc etc. I'd better make a plan and a trip to the mall. Those pics are to come.
