Christmas is Coming!

Some sights we have seen in and around our house that Christmas is coming! 

LOOK at our AWESOME lights that my "lighting engineer", Oney produced this year! I forgot to take a picture of the back. It had colored lights and was just as beautiful. He did a WONDERFUL job and worked VERY hard for many nights making this all look so perfect.

A cool Christmas ornament, Magis' Camel, that my sister in law gave us. It has extra special significance since we rode camels in Dubai this Summer.

Oney's ornament that Aunt Jan gave him this year. She has given the girls an angel and the boys a Santa every year since they were born! WOW! Thanks Aunt Jan for starting us an awesome tree of our own.

This was Oney and my creation in the back yard. Pretty neat, huh?

A definite sign that Christmas is coming...the lighting of the Rockefeller Christmas tree. We watch it as a family every year.

Judson's Grinch makes his way out of storage. Judson has always been known as "the Grinch" during the Holidays. I think being in the retail business puts a damper on his Holiday Spirits. He has always told the kids since they were little that he was the Gr-Gr-Grinch! The girls made this Grinch at Build a Bear when they were probably 3 and 4 years old. They look forward to pulling it out every year!

We all sit together in one room and watch Christmas movies, specials, or shows. 

The tree goes up. Typically, Thanksgiving week. This year it was a little late. 

The ELVES come back to visit us!!! 

Pipkin, Cinnamon & Blossom

We had Christmas carolers come to our house! We ALWAYS go caroling to our friends each year. But, this year we didn't get to do it.
