-First week of December: finished putting up the new pre-lit tree. Dang thing takes up so much space we had to rearrange the living room. Plus, a section of lights still won't work. Rat bastards!
First Friday in December: craft night at my friend's house. I already showed ya'll the cute palm tree ornaments (made from WINE CORKS). Here is the wall hanging I made for my niece and the Baby Jesus candle. 
First Saturday in December: Christmas Program at church. I was the head angel- yeah, I know!
Savannah was a sheep, I mean angel! She's the one sitting down...
First Sunday in December: we went to a night-time parade with lights. Here Savannah is cuddled up with our friend Mary Claire.
December 11: last day of my school program. We had been doing a fundraiser and I told my kids if they raised x amount of $, I will give them a popcorn party. But if they raised xx amount of $, I would dress up as an elf on the last day. Well, folks, you see that they did. Charming, aren't I?
December 13: Family Christmas party with the aforementioned "recycled" gift. Pictured is my immediate family. No, Savannah isn't picking her nose. I think she's just smelling her fingers...
Dec. 16: we left for Florida. Steve had a work thing so the rest of us tagged along. It was a lot warmer than I had expected. I wish I had packed more shorts. Oh, what's that you say? It's 10 below where you are? Sucks to be you...
Dec. 19: We went to Disney World. The crowds weren't too bad and we had a good time. We got to see and do some things we didn't get to do when we went in May. Savannah was so into the characters this time, she sat down and practically had a conversation with Stitch.
Here's my little thrill-seeker on the teacups for the first time. You might want to turn the volume down a little...Dec. 20: Got home from Florida with a nasty cold. I don't have any pics of that. You're welcome.
Dec. 22: Finished up our shopping and met our friends at Chuck E. Cheese for lunch. I don't have pictures from that either.
Today: I made one of those adorable gingerbread houses from a kit that you can find everywhere. I don't have those pics yet, either, (ever since Steve re-did our computer, it's like learning to ride a bike all over again!)but its worthy of it's own post later.
I hope everyone has been enjoying the festivities and this time of year like we have. It's hectic and crazy sometimes, but I wouldn't have it any other way!
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
