Holiday Happenings

December is always a buys month for our family, but his year has seemed to have kept us unusually busy.

Here are a few things that we have been up to:

Decorating the Christmas tree--we put it up late this year, but it finally happened.   Still haven't gotten the outdoor lights up.....

Celebrating Eileen's 71st birthday--we had a nice dinner downtown:

Attending Alaina's last preschool holiday sing-a-long.  Here she is with her best friend Emma:

Celebrating Chanukkah-we had traditional latkes and of course hanukkah cookies for a family gathering tonight.  Of course Ethan had a basketball tournament and missed a good chunk of it (yes, basketball season is in full swing now!)

.

That plus a couple of neighborhood parties and a couple of work parties and filled up our time quite well.

Next up: Christmas!
