The holidays are really upon us. I have managed to put that fact to the back of mind for a little while now. I did do my Christmas shopping early but I kept fooling myself that we had alot of time left but you know what...we don't! Mike and I better get on the ball and start creating some memories for Roon!Last week Mike got our Christmas lights up. Checked off this list. Christmas cards sent out. Crossed off the list. Mike's Christmas shopping. Can't find it on the list. No, no it all got done (except the Christmas cards- sorry where did the time go?) but we did manage to get our tree up (fake again! Where did the time go?) and decorated and we even managed to get a little house decorating done too! We desperately need to clean though. Still on the list but we've got time, right?
Despite all the above nonsense we did get out with our new club members and visited the Botanical Gardens: Garden D'Light. This was really cool because they created all these plants out of light. It was beautiful and the kids all really seemed to enjoy it. Not really a Christmas themed event but they have it every year at Christmas time.
We have a week left of Christmas themed activities before family starts arriving to really kick off the season. Wednesday we have Storytime with Santa. I'm interested to see how this will go. Rooney is frightened of the giant blow up Frosty at the Community Center. I wonder if a living, breathing Santa will intrigue him or scare him? Maybe a peace offering of cookies will keep Santa subdued! Or maybe I'll try to desensitize Rooney to Santa if I keep showing him his 1st picture with Santa.That picture isn't scary at all!

We love the classics! Rooney may regret that picture getting reposted every year, but I for one am already steeped in the tradition, it wouldn't be Christmas without it.
I agree with your mom!(hi Peggy!) You have to post that pic every year....Maybe even use it for a christmas card.
