Holidays are upon us
The kids and I got a head start before Chad and headed up to his parents house a week before Thanksgiving. Ty and Aidan helped Granny decorate for Christmas, since we won't be with them during Christmas we celebrated both Thanksgiving and Christmas in November. They loved putting the ornaments on the tree, most of Granny's ornaments were on the bottom half and most on the same several branches. They were so proud, and so was Granny. Ty was so excited this year for Christmas presents, he could hardly wait until it was time to open. For several days he would re-organize his presents and then sit and look at the gifts wondering what they might be. Time has flown between returning from Thanksgiving and now packing up to leave again for Christmas. Ty has now lost both his bottom front two teeth, he can hardly hang onto the money from the tooth fairy. His favorite place to go and spend his money - Target! Aidan had her Tangled birthday party, dressed in her rapunzel dress. After the food, cake and presents we went outside after dark and set off all the floating lanterns - she was so excited. Can't believe our baby girl is 3, or as she likes to say "I'm free". Ty had his first Christmas program, and was so adoreable! His pre-k class did an amazing job, singing jingle bells, fa-la-la-la, and We wish you a merry Christmas. Chad and I are taking the kids up to a cabin in the mountains to spend Christmas and Ty can hardly wait. He has made a calendar in his room and marks off each day until we leave. He is hoping for snow - we will see. Snow or no snow we are looking forward to the memories made as a family.
