Let the glad tidings ring!

It has been so much fun getting ready for the holidays! We got into the full swing of things this past weekend with the tree! Juliette and Tripp had way too much fun under a tent chasing each other around the trees! Tripp was SO into the action this year and did not want to stop running at all!


Able to hold him down for one second to capture a picture....




... and then in all the commotion I looked at the tree laying down and it looked perfect... well its perfect all right... 9 1/2 feet tall! It took three men to load the tree on the car. At that point it had not even hit us the size of it until we tried to roll the tree off the car... it was the BIGGEST tree that you could imagine. We are getting some good laughs as I swear it takes up half the living room... you ask for a picture of the tree all decorated? Well we have not even started... I am beginning to think she looks beautiful just as she is in the room.

Stodda the Elf must be lost...

or so that's what Juliette is telling herself.... I have been waiting for some perfect behavior before Stodda comes around and we just can't seem to get that. Last week Juliette woke up to a note on the floor and a friend of Stodda's who claimed his name to be "Moonshine" had arrived...




A quite excited little girl to even find a friend of Stodda's... her response to the note... "Of course I have been behaving..."


Then she found something very strange... it looks like a reindeer lost his antler and at the same time there was broken glass under the tree where the elf apparently dropped an ornament climbing into the tree...


Juliette was a bit in shock and refused to touch it or get any closer to it. The rest of the morning here is what she did...


There is a little girl that is hoping that Stodda arrives very soon...

Saint Nicholas Day

Saint Nicholas paid a visit to Juliette's class overnight. She had to decorate one of her shoes and leave it out in hopes that Saint Nick would come...


Her beautiful shoe that she and Tessa decorated...


Off to school in hopes that the jolly good man will arrive!
