A Very Merry Christmas!

Christmas has been a whirlwind again this year. But among all the activities there was still time for sitting quietly by the lighted Christmas tree, looking at all the outdoor displays, and attending Christmas Eve service at church.
We had loads of fun as we did all the traditional things we like to do such as bake and decorate cut-out sugar cookies.
LittleJ sure liked putting on the sprinkles!
We always go out and cut our own tree and this year was no exception. Here we are hunting for the perfect tree.

Where, oh where, has our Christmas tree gone. Where, oh where can it be?

We ended up back at the barn without a tree (all the scotch pines were way too plump), but had some wonderful hot chocolate and popcorn. We left the tree farm empty handed and ended up getting one already cut at a nursery. It looks just as good and we still had a great time.

BigJ was a shepherd in the homeschool co-op Christmas program.
And LittleE was a camel in the stable for the co-op youth drama.
On Christmas morning we opened our gifts to each other.

We also had gifts to open at grandma and papa's house.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
