Christmas is Coming

We were very excited to decorate for Christmas this year.  It seems like we just needed something fun to lighten up the house since the days have become so dark.  So, we went out and bought a very nice tree and decorated the house.  We've also been listening to Christmas Music non-stop and watching all of our Christmas movies. Some of our other festivities included making a Gingerbread house (we found a kit that included just the gingerbread - we had to make our own frosting and buy our own candies for it), we also made homemade ornaments out of styrofoam balls, strips of newspaper, glue, paint and glitter.  It was messy, but lots of a fun.  What a fun time of year!
