It all started with a beautiful sunset. I mean can you believe this sky?! The kids were just coming in after spending all day helping their 92 year old grandpa prune plants! What a day! I was on my way home from teaching a holiday art workshop and it was so fun.
Everyone had fun trimming the tree, even though the kids were taller than it! Lets just say that we won't buy a tree in the dark ever again. The kids did not even notice. Ty is finally over his 3 week cold which was no more than a lot of snot. ( see photo) I thought his expression was hilarious. The only time a 18 month sits still is if snot is suddenly all over his face.
Tate has discovered a new passion, thanks to a man named Earl at his great grand parents care home. This man assembles puzzles on a giant desk at the top of the stairs. The last time we went to visit Papa Jim and Meme Great, he didn't even come in their room. He just sat by Earl and watched him do his puzzle. This picture is of a very tired Tate who could not pull himself away from his cookie puzzle. ( 300 pieces!)
It is a quiet night in December. The cold weather is promising to hit tomorrow and the kids are excited for the possibility of snow. The boys are sound asleep and Ellie is spending some quality time with her best friend Stella. Ah to be carefree and 7 again, that was the best!
