Christmas trees and trains

The day after Thanksgiving we put up our Christmas tree. I love that it looks like a kids tree with the colored lights and lots of homemade ornaments from school. In the evening the movie The Polar Express came on tv. The girls got into thier pj's and snuggles under blankets to watch the movie.

I can't hold on much longer!!

After we had eaten our yummy Thanksgiving lunch the girls were saying goodbye to Uncle Trevor and then decided to "climb" the trees in the front yard. Lauren was a couple of feet off the ground and Olivia stood on a stump about a foot off of the ground. As I was getting ready to take a picture Lauren yelled "I can't hold on much longer!" Olivia joined the fun and yelled the same thing. When I turned to her and said say cheese, she threw up her hand in the air and smiled. What a pose!

Friendship Soup

The girls had their Friendship Soup day at school this week. Lauren made a pilgrim hat and Olivia made an Indian hat. All of the classes did their best teamwork to make the vegetable soup for all of the families.
