With Thanksgiving over this weekend, we have been putting up our finishing touches to get ready for Christmas. We put the tree up the week we got back from the states but due to some exciting twinkle light short outs, we just got around to putting on the ornaments.
We put up the table and unpacked the boxes. It is fun to see all of the ornaments from years and memories past. This really gets the kids excited.
Logan and Addy each got a new ornament, they look like sugar cookies, cut in the shape of an "a" and a "L".
Addy took a bite just in case it was real. You can also see in this picture the results of her literal run in with the corner of the kitchen table.
Here are some other ornaments we fashioned out of trinkets from our travels this year. This is a plastic copy of an Allosaurus claw. (fits in beautifully next to our Alcatraz spoon)
This Lego man represents the hours Logan and I spent building Lego sets this year, and also our fun-filled trip to the Lego store at Disneyland.
This is a bat from the Haunted mansion at Disneyland. We had a blast this October trick-or-treating in the park with the kids. What fun memories.
Here is one of our new santas with a couple of Korean tigers.
Drum roll please.... here is the final product. We will have to wait for it to get dark to get the full effect of the 4000 + Chinese LEDs. Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

What a cute idea!! Love the tree! Poor Addy, corners of tables are the worst!!

Awesome! Very fun ornaments. I am not fun with ornaments, but I DID let the kids go to town with the decorating this year, and I did not fix it later. I think it's a step.
Hey! It's Laura McBride. Just found your blog! I love those Santas! Where did you get them?
