can I just say how fast Christmas 2014 has come?
it just seems like we started back to school a few weeks ago! the every day grind of work and school for everyone just makes the days fly by.
{the First Lady (10.5)...asking for an american girl doll, make up, clothes, and lots of other girly things for Christmas this year}
so here's our annual decorating the tree photos. we put up the tree the day after Thanksgiving and the following weekend we dig out the ornaments, load up on cookies and get those trees decorated.
{our second (14)...asking for clothes, cologne, a new hockey stick and nike socks this year for Christmas]
{our oldest (15.5)...asking for workout clothes, cologne, headphones this year for Christmas}
{and then the Lil' Lady(5)...asking for Legos, nail polish, princess dolls and many, many, many other things this year for Christmas}
this season we were blessed to have acquired tickets to see Amy Grant and Michael W. Smith in concert. sponsored by Cracker Barrel where my mom works, she won them and was nice to pass them on to us! we even got to meet and shake his hand!
we spotted this on our trek through the big city after the concert which the hubs found hilarious.
just yesterday we volunteered to ring the bells for a few hours in front of Sam's Club for the Salvation Army. i took the First Lady and a few friends for the first hour and then the hubs took the boys on the second. good thing, because with 24 degrees temps none of us could have lasted the entire two hours! they absolutely loved it and hope to do it again next year.
Merry Christmas Everyone!!! Only a few days to go:)
God is good
