Holiday Weekend

The first weekend in December is jam-packed with fun for the kids. We spent both Saturday and Sunday around town with other family friends. It is a great way to get in the mood for Christmas.

We did Christmas crafts at the library including Iris paper folding with our favorite librarian, Melissa.

The girls went shopping in a local church basement for gifts for everyone in our family. They were so proud when they came up the stairs with many bags and change in their pockets. In years past, they have picked out some very creative things.

We went to the Holiday Light Parade with lots of friends and cheered the trucks, dogs, and people wearing lights.


The parade ended as they lit many of the trees around the downtown pond. Gus LOVED the lights.


We picked out a fabulous tree from the Delancey Street Christmas Tree Lot.

We enjoyed "The Nutcracker" with fabulous dancers including our pediatrician as Mother Ginger and our favorite babysitter as the Snow Queen.
