It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ... :)

Yep, we dug into our Christmas decorations last weekend. I'll admit, it was accompanied by much snuffling and sneezing, but thankfully most of that is now past.

Day 337. This is a pretty normal scene for a school morning. At least for a few minutes ... ;)

Day 338. What's better than an activity center? A brother who delights to entertain you while in it. :)

With much concentration, Matthew began working on his nativity scene today. :)

Day 339. Peter was pretty excited to get to hang the star this year ...

Day 340. Daddy supervised the ornamenting of the tree this year so that Mommy could begin working on our Christmas stockings.

In the evening, we visited a live nativity at a local church. It was very well done! We've never been to anything quite like it before, and we all really enjoyed it.

Day 341. Abby-girl has discovered her toes ... She is also having a blast playing with the toys hanging on her floor mat. :)

Day 342. What's better than a tent?

Watching a movie in your tent. ;)

Day 343. It took us quite a few days, but Matthew finally finished his nativity! :)

Day 344. My girls ♥

Day 345. Stockings finished and hung! :) (With two in the ready for Grandma and Grandpa!!)

Day 346. Blessings.

Day 347. So, the big event for yesterday was our church's annual Christmas dinner. Of which I got not one picture. Regardless of the fact that half of our family participated in the program afterwards. Ah well. The food was good. And I was super proud of Chris and Hannah-bug (along with Faith-Ann) for doing a great job with their first Irish Flute performance. ♥ And Matthew thought it was pretty cool to get to listen to Mommy read a story at church ... especially since the pictures were really big. :)

Afterwards, Daddy and the kids watched The Muppet Christmas Carol ...

And Mommy worked on Christmas gifts for the kids' teachers. :)

One last week of school and work before a two week break. We're all looking forward to Christmas! :)
