Preparing For Christmas

A fun tradition we have is the little kid Christmas tree.  It is incredible, everybody is taller than the tree now.  No more little little kids around here.  Nonetheless, it is still a favorite to decorate.

Brynnly insists it is her year to put the star on the big tree, so we obliged.  She is after all the "baby".


We made sure to get in the mood and watch It's A Wonderful Life right away.  We love that movie!  Well, 3/4th of us do.  I believe Baylor was up in my room watching a football game and Brynnly reluctantly watched.  Still, this picture warms my heart!  It is so cozy in our home, and it never was far from our minds that this was our last Christmas in this house.  I have loved having this big wonderful mantle to decorate.

We went down the St. Vrain Christmas walk.  We had all kinds of hopes and expectations, it has become one of our favorite traditions.  This year seemed a little low key, we were surprised.  Not as many people and not as many lights.  But it is still fun and we love talking walks together.

These guys LIGHT UP MY CHRISTMAS!

Nothing was forgotten this season, even amidst packing and moving prep.  The Advent Fairy gave us this gingerbread village to do and each kid got their own little house to decorate.  Everyone's style came through and they all had fun.




CHRISTMAS IS SO MUCH FUN!!!
