Christmas this year is kind of a blur. With so few days between Thanksgiving and Christmas and the fact that we were getting ready to go on vacation made it go by really fast. I'm not gonna complain though. The fewer days that my house has to have Christmas stuff all over it, the better.
For starters, we got rid of our artificial tree and graduated on to using a real tree. I listed it on Craigslist for free and set it out on my front steps and it was gone within an hour. Easy peasy.
Here is the real tree. A Douglas Fir from Home Depot. We set it up in the kitchen to to keep little Doodlepaws away from it as much as possible but she should sneak into the kitchen all.the.time and I would find ornaments all over the place. She only managed to break one and thankfully it was one that I didn't really care about.
This is a picture of a picture, but we went to the Santa Experience at Mall of America. What a great Santa! He plays with the kids and makes them feel comfortable. My little scardey cat even sat on his lap.
We went to Ben & Angie's house for Christmas Eve. Presents were a bit hit. Anna got lots of Minnie Mouse stuff and Meredith got all sorts of fun stuff.
A lot of time was spent jumping in the trampoline with Bowen and Chris.
Here are the goods Santa brought.
We spent Christmas Day at Robin & Irene's house in Wisconsin.
We opened a few more gifts.
We had a great time!
