It's beginning to look like Christmas!

The tree is up and the stockings are hung! We have had a week of very cold weather and lots of snow.  It has been in the negatives at night and 4 degrees during the day.  With all the snow, Thad got 2 snow days and he was thrilled! Adam even got a day off of work so it was fun to all hang out.  

We always save the tree topper for Thad.  He likes putting it up each year.  

I was a little worried about Andrew and the tree but he's been pretty good so far.  He likes to flick the ornaments at the bottom and then look at me and shake his head no with a big smile on his face.  Ollie is the one that put most of the ornaments on the tree.  He loved it!

I finally got new stockings this year! I have wanted nice ones with our names embroidered for a few years and finally broke down and got them.  They turned out so cute! (several people have wondered where we got them- online at Walmart)

Happy boy for a snow day! 


We did a few crafts.  Thanks to Pinterest we came up with these.

This is Thad's snowman hand


Oliver's


Andrew's

They turned out really cute and the boys had fun painting their hands and the faces.

We also did reindeer foot prints.  



It was a fun to have Thad home during the week.  I miss him during the day and he is such a big helper.
