Christmas Time is Here Again

We couldn't wait any longer and so we ushered in the holiday season last friday night. Matt was off work all week for Thanksgiving. What a blessing to have him home for so long! We can't wait for THREE weeks for Christmas break. It will be wonderful!
Matt was doing the ugly job of untangling some lights. He was getting sooo frustrated. He growled rather loudly and said, "why does anyone bother with these stupid things?" To which Micah replied rather flippiantly, "I don't know what to tell ya buddy." It was hilarious and Matt and I both cracked up laughing.
Trying to make Daddy feel better about the lights.

Only happy for a minute in the chair that gave Micah hours of comfort.

Getting a huge Micah hug!

How Beatrix was most of the night. As long as she is in the sling she is a VERY happy baby.

Micah placing a clump of snowflakes on our tree. Does anyone else struggle with weither or not to leave things where kids put them if they look less then perfect???

Last year Micah was terrified of owls. He developed a fear of them from one of the videos we had gotten at the library. Every year I am going try to find an ornament that represents the year. Hence the owl. However he was so afraid of them last year I had to hide it. This year we are much more grown up about it and they are "not so bad".

The finished product.
