The last week or so has consisted of decorating, and the traditions that go along with it. Lights were put up on a day over 16 degrees, and yet we still made hot chocolate. Cale scaled the roof, while I juggled the boys and getting lights on the deck.
The house was a longer process this year. I did it more of a little bit at a time. Between a 2.5 year old, who wants to get into everything and a 3 month old, who requires a lot of care, I was strategic with my time. We wrapped all the house (not tree) up and had our festive specials.
Then we wrapped it all up with the tree. A lot of rearranging, and reminding Jake not to put all the ornaments on one brach. That said now the challenge is keeping him from playing with the ornaments. That part of decorating is always followed with a dinner from the slowcooker that was put on some hours earlier.
We're noticing in our area a LOT more people are decorating early. It seems like people need Christmas a little more this year. Around here it looks like mid December with all the lights.
K, Luv Ya, Bye
Nancy, Cale, Jake, Brock and Alice
