It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas

After coming back from Florida it was a little hard to get into the Christmas spirit, it just didn't feel like it yet.  Well, the weather definitely feels like Winter now.  We had a big drop in temperature last week and all of a sudden it feels a lot more like Christmas is coming.  

We did decorate the house for Christmas already and I always love it.  The house will feel so empty after we take it all down again.






And guess who has made an appearance again?  Yes, Mr Christmas returned on December 1st.  He has been up to a lot of shenanigans.....

He still can't get his landing right and crashes....

I am planning on doing an entire post on just our Elf when he is done.......would be fun to document all of his silliness.

Evan had a calendar to countdown the days until he can open his advent calendar.  Haha!


I took Evan on a little date and we went to see Trike Theaters production of Charlotte's Web.  It was very cute and Evan enjoyed it (it was an hour long, which was perfect.....the last 10min he was getting really wiggly).

We went with my friend Amy and her son Hudson.  It was a wonderful evening with just my boy.

Since then I have taken Hannah on a date to see the movie Wonder and we both loved it.  We have not read the book yet, so we can't compare it to that, but we thought it was a wonderfully made movie and such a great story.  Now it is Nora's turn to take her on a date.

We went to Barn church for the "hanging of the greens" and had a great evening with some special people and a good potluck dinner.


Oh the detangling of the light strings.......always fun


We have also created our annual Christmas Bucket List

We are working on crossing things off of our list.
The Bentonville Christmas Parade is always a favorite for the kids.  Evan had soccer that morning, so he chose to go there instead.  It was pretty cold out, but the girls still enjoyed it.


Lots more memories to make this Christmas season.  All kids are at a great age to enjoy this wonderful time of the year.
