O Christmas Tree

After much debate, we put up our Christmas tree; a fake Christmas tree.  I always loved going to the tree farm and cutting it down, but my parent's offered us their old tree (they downsized).  It's a good size tree and goes well with our vaulted ceiling in the living room.  I have to admit, it was easy to assemble and the fact that the lights were already on made decorating fast and easy.  The boys were hanging ornaments faster than I could unpack them.  Mark wanted to put them on and take them off to play with.  All the boys got to get on Dadda's shoulders to hang some ornaments and attempt to put the star on.  Eventually, I was able to get the star on somewhat straight.  It turned out nice and now it feels like Christmas!

Making Candy

To kick off our holiday season, we made chocolate candy today.  The boys were very helpful and once Mark got over the fact that he couldn't eat them, he helped too!

Lunch with AJ

Jeff was off today so Ty and I took a trip up to AJ's school to have lunch with him.  Ty thought it was really cool to go to the big school.  We had Chic-fil-A and the boys shared an ice cream.  They went to go purchase it together.  We stopped by AJ's classroom and noticed his turkey that he made and the story he wrote about it.  They were all so funny!

Dress for Success Day

AJ had dress for success day at school today and I snapped his picture before I dropped him off.  He dressed the part for a future engineer.
