Last Monday night the girls set out their slippers by the fireplace for St. Nick. Tuesday morning they found them filled with sparkly headbands, vanilla lip smackers and hershey kisses (aka "rain drop candy" according to Cokes). St. Nick made the mistake of leaving fruit snacks as well, which were promptly turned over to Dad because they were "too hard and chewy."
Saturday afternoon we took Matt's truck a mile up the road to pick out our Christmas tree. Boots and beads were worn for the occasion.We put the tree up in the sunroom and the girls hung the ornaments on the branches. Matt helped CoCo place the angel on top.
Sunday morning the girls were slightly disappointed that there were not any presents under the tree. But that didn't last long.
Jo decided they would pretend they were living in the forest. They packed up backpacks with their favorite toys and spread blankets and pillows to make beds.
Who needs cartoons when you can camp out in a magical Christmas forest?
