Advent Fetivities

It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas!! We had such a fun weekend getting our tree, decorating, and spending time together as a family. On Saturday we went to the tree farm and cut down the perfect tree! It was chilly but we haven't had any snow here yet. On Sunday after church we went to the Port Festival and I got to ride in a "Whoo Whoo!" (AKA- Fire Truck) We sat in the back so I got to talk to the firefighter and he even let me put on his helmet! Do you know how heavy those things are? We had no idea! I also got to see Santa again, I sure like that guy. I even tried to get in someone else's picture. I just wanted to see him so bad.
Today is the feast of Saint Nicholas so we left our shoes by the fireplace and he filled them with coins, candy, a book, and even a new Christmas Boz Movie!! Happy Saint Nicholas Day everyone!

Playing with our Nativity

We named this snowman Franklin. We knew he wasn't Frosty because he has a carrot nose (not a button nose)

After Dada cut the tree down we walked back up to get the truck and rode in the back while mama drove. Don't worry, we held on tight!

Sissy and I sure like to be silly these days

Don't ask me what she is doing, but I sure loved to "help" put on the ornaments this year

This is my train ornament, my all time favorite! I frequently carry the step stool out of the bathroom to the tree so I can see this ornament better. It game from Grandma Bonnie and Papa Jim last year.

Me with Mr. Firefighter. It was bright and I was trying to stay on the seat.

How do I look? I definitely couldn't hold this helmet on with my 2 year old neck.
