Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!

My holiday chief (Alex) was adamant that the Christmas decorations come out as soon as Thanksgiving was over.  The kids on the street were thrilled to see another inflatable show up on our lawn this year.  Casey was unimpressed and only stayed for the picture because there was a treat in my hand.
 

We love the Christmas show, Celebration, at our church and enjoyed our annual visit. It's always a beautiful celebration of Jesus' birth.
 

We wrapped up baseball with the end of season party and I was so thankful that the team mom scheduled it after Thanksgiving. It was fun to celebrate with the kids.

The first non-participation trophy for either of our kids!  A second-place finish for the regular season meant that the team earned a real trophy from Pony.  I hope these kids can play together again in the spring.

Alex begged to open a Christmas gift early, so we let him open the Imploding Kittens expansion pack to Exploding Kittens.  Not at all because I was anxious to play the game.  We have played it almost every day since!  Tons of fun...especially the cone of shame!!
 


Now school is out and we are looking forward to the serious business of relaxing, enjoying, and celebrating the season.  Merry Christmas to you and yours, and may your Christmas be blessed with joy and laughter!
