Doorbell rings at 8 AM and in comes two excited little boys wearing their new Santa hats carrying a box of donuts from Krispy Kreme + a Peppermint Mocha (skinny) for Grandma from Starbucks! Thanks so much for these yummy treats, Anne......my kind of visitors! Anne and Patrick both had to work today, so.......we had the little elves and what a busy day it was!
One tree is completely decorated; the other one is 75% done (Grandma ran out of steam)! We also made 2 loaves of banana nut bread, a jello salad and chocolate pudding. They say the cutest things.....Connor was up and down, up and down the small step stool hanging ornaments and finally he said "whew, I'm getting too old for this"!!!!! WONDER where he heard that????
AND.....while Grandpa and boys were outdoors putting up garland across the flower box, they wanted me to help with the ribbon and lights. It was chilly out, but no wind, so we all got out the rakes and started cleaning out the new landscaping and last of the leaves (we HOPE) and yard looks great! A very invigorating hour of work!!!

Here's some highlights of our day...
Writing and pondering over their Christmas lists
Thank you silly little elves for all your help today!

Evening Pat: Cold, windy day at the lake. The boys along with the little ones worked hard outside burning trees and brush. After lunch they started their usual poker games and, of course, more Football games. Our weather was beautiful Thursday and Friday. Had a lot of sun today but soooooo windy and only in the 40's. Had a nice three day Holiday weekend with lots of games, laughing, children everywhere and food, food and more food. Looks like you had a nice Holiday too. Have a good week and space out the decorating. Can't believe you have already done so much decorating. JudyB
