The Twenty-Four Days Before Christmas – Day 6

Today our special thing was to decorate our family room tree. Tess made some fudge and everyone joined in – though not Sophia as she was asleep. The kids had fun, but it seemed like the only ornaments they wanted to hang were the ones that were so heavy the branches fell way down and the lights fell off. I finally had to put the really heavy ones away. Sarah especially seemed to find every super heavy ornament she could. But, everyone had fun and thank goodness that tree is done. Now it feels more like Christmas the kids tell me.

We also wrapped a few gifts and Bethany and I did a little shopping. I am desperately trying to finish all my shopping, but I keep realizing I have more and more to buy. It was a nice day and we did get a lot done.

The Twenty-Four Days Before Christmas – Day 5

Today for some reason I felt very lazy and didn’t want to do that much. I tried to get some of our Christmas boxes in order and put away so the place would be less messy. I think we are almost done decorating and getting the things we are not using this Christmas organized and stored.

Our special thing for today was to play the game Yule Never Guess. Joshua and Madelyn were here so they played, too. It was fun and we actually knew a lot of the answers. We listened to Christmas music as we played and it was a nice afternoon. Unfortunately, I didn’t take a single picture today so I had to try to find something I took yesterday or the day before.
