Our Thanksgiving was super fun, and our Friday was super fun. On Saturday we got started on our Christmas decorating. Daddy kindly fetched the boxes from the attic in the morning, and we got busy during the day on Saturday!
Lincoln and Beau were so happy to have trees in their rooms this year. Lincoln loved listening to his Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas CD while working on his tree.
Beau had a great time being in charge of his tree. He hung almost all of the ornaments at his eye-level. He was super proud! He was probably the most happy about doing it all on his own . . . he really likes to make his own decisions!!
We celebrated Pop Pops birthday (it was actually on Friday) on Saturday night with dinner at Manny's and cake at our house. We all sang Happy Birthday then Pop Pop had to think of wish before blowing out his candles.
Present opening was interesting . . . the boys picked out exactly what they wanted as gifts. They directed me to the "Texas store" at the mall a few weekends ago and chose really specific Christmas ornaments as gifts. As any grandparent would do, Pop Pop loved his gifts and thanked them for their thoughtfulness.
We all went to church on Sunday morning, and Lincoln and Beau were striped cuties.
We had brunch at the club before Daddy played a little golf in the afternoon. He came home to put out the Christmas lights with two silly helpers. Everyone was proud of their work! We are all enjoying the festive lights.
It is important to note that everyone was wearing shorts and t-shirts during all of our weekend Christmas decorating. It was a gloriously warm (yet windy) weekend. We knew that the weather would turn cold on Monday, so we took full advantage of the almost 80 degree temps. The cold weather coming on Monday won't keep us from having more Christmas fun; we'll just have to keep it indoors. So happy to be Merry with these guys!
