It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Our first week of December began with many fa-la-la festivities to get us in the holiday spirit. From trimming the tree ... to seeing more snow fall ... to attending several holiday parties, the very merry season is off to a grand start! Hope your December days are just as merry and bright!

Our Elf on the Shelf friend Mr. Teddy has returned!

This year the boys are even more intrigued by him.

So far, Mr. Teddy has taken some good reports back

to Santa ... let's hope that continues!

Luke & Mama trim the tree. As we placed all the

ornaments on the tree, we shared some wonderful

memories talking about the many ornaments

handmade by Grandma Ruby & Mimi Dixie.

What a Christmas treasure!

Our first holiday party was the Junior League

Provisional Graduation with the theme of

"Mistletoe & Martinis." We had a ball celebrating

with our newest members!

Jami & Scott (check out his festive Grinch tie!)

We also attended Scott's company party this weekend.

His company planned a casino night with "funny money"

and many laughs! What fun to celebrate the season with

his work friends! We are so blessed by Scott's job and the

wonderful company where he works.
