Getting ready for Christmas

We had a wonderful, quiet Thanksgiving this year. Sometimes just keeping it simple and staying at home is just as fun.


We had our first snowfall, the day before Thanksgiving. Nothing stuck to the ground, but it was sure pretty to watch.

That got me in the baking mood to start working on those Thanksgiving pies!

After Thanksgiving, we traditionally start decorating for Christmas. I was afraid we werent going to get around to it with the new baby taking up such a big chunk of our time. But with the big kids' help, we managed to get the tree up and a few of the decorations up around the house!

Off topic, but adding a cutie picture from the weekend:
