December

More fun with bread. Eli made snakes about to eat the giant mouse that Lily decorated with raisins.

 Getting ready for Christmas; we had to buy a few ladders to reach the tallest eaves of the house with Christmas lights

 Alianna got out her reindeer shirt she made last year.

 Lily wanted to use the stockings for, well, stockings.

 We love picking out our tree the day after Thanksgiving.

 Alianna and Eli had fun with the leaf pile I raked up.  I had to rake it up quite a few times before I finally cleaned the leaves up. They were having such a great time!

 Decorating our tree

 Lily loves using chopsticks to pick up pistachios.

All ready for church! Alianna and Lily loved wearing their red dresses all December. (They each had a couple.) And Eli wore his red bow tie to match.
