IT IS BEGINNING TO LOOK A LOT LIKE CHRISTMAS

The Sunday after Thanksgiving, the tree went up, the decorations were put in place and new ornaments were bought. I allow the kids to purchase new ornaments every year and when they get married, they will have a box of ornaments for their tree.

The kids start with their frist ornament and on, and on.

Vinny got the fish above and narwall below. They were a pair.

Patrick picked out the rootbeer or beer. What do you see? You can see on the bottom his intial and the year.

I fell in love with this cute whale. 

My new wreath made by my friend Beth.

Mitchell picked out the pickle. Why? Who knows.

Lucas gave this to Vinny when she had her surgery. It was a bean she had to plant. Can you see what it says? How cool is that?
