Hooray, It's December!

Let the holiday fun begin!
Alphie Arrived

Anna wanted to give Alphie a hug.
Max helped me make this super cute advent calendar and put three jellybeans in each pouch.
We searched for the perfect tree (read: we ran through all the swinging trees and collected rocks while Daddy found the top candidates)
We found our Christmas tree!
Unloaded the Christmas Tree and had lots of eager helpers cut off the netting
Enjoyed Christmas tree cookies(thanks to Grandma Mary) and chocolate milk in front of the tree.
Delivered tins with sweet treats to neighbors!
We had a neighbor join us for the deliveries.
Decorated the outside porch with our usual garland, wreaths and our newest addition - tomato cage Christmas trees for a little extra light.
Re-purposed tomato cage (upside down) and four strands of lights
I AM SO EXCITED!!!
