We've been enjoying getting ready for Christmas around here. The Saturday after Thanksgiving we got our tree out and decorated. It's been nice having our tree up so early. We typically don't get it out until at least the first week of December, but I've been loving so much time with our Christmas decorations out!
The kids had a great time decorating. Rilyn did awesome and loves hearing stories behind the ornaments. Sawyer's shirt says, "Dear Santa, I can explain" and there is a picture of a broken ornament, which apparently is perfect for him since we have not had a broken ornament until this year. 3 so far!
The boys lasted until the cocoa and popcorn came out and then they were done. When Ryder's cocoa was gone he asked for more and when he was told no he said, "Next time we better use bigger cups for our hot chocolate." Ha that boy loves his sweets.
The kids also enjoy getting out all the random Christmas toys, clothes, and their nativity. Ryder has spent time almost every day in his room with his door shut playing with the nativity. He encircles Jesus with any random toy he can find and they all have to stare at Jesus he tells me.
Ryder also kept asking to try the stocking on?? Such a goof ball thought he was supposed to wear them.
The kids found some attire for a picture, but Ryder was not pleased with his selection so we can just call him the grumpy elf from now on.
Our first family selfie. Not easy getting all of us, including Rilyn's baby, in a photo!
