Christmas Decorating

Christmas always comes early around the Abrahamson household, but if we didn't start now we would never get done in time. By late afternoon Friday all the indoor Halloween decorations were taken down so we could start first thing Saturday and we had started baking Christmas goodies. It felt weird not to have Alesha here, but the rest of the sisters were together to help dad and get things started. Most of the day was spent outside and then the evening we came inside to decorate, because it would just look dumb if the outside was decorated but not the inside! Sunday was more of the same, we mostly worked on the village. Oh and Peyton became very attached to the baby doll we use for baby Jesus in the Manger scene, what a girl. It was a lot of fun to listen to Christmas music and squabble with eachother, it brings back such warm memories. We all love Christmas so much!

Apparently I had gotten a little silly late Saturday night!

The girls in our Christmas socks to get us in the holiday spirit!


Peyton and the baby Jesus, new best friends

We should totally think about doing that when we are done, have santa greet them and take their dontations! It would be a great way to compensate our electricity bill! He he he!
