Christmas Tree 2017

 The girls & I had fun decorating our tree this year - they are finally old enough to be helpful!  We gave them new pajamas & slippers - and I made them some Christmas quilts.  I didn't manage to get pictures of their 2017 ornaments; they were from Alaska - a caribou and a moose - I'll get pictures next year!

Tree Hunt 2017

 We thankfully had a dry day to go and find our Christmas Tree.  We didn't have to look hard - and found what we considered the nicest looking tree we could remember.  Heidi did take a face plant into the mud, though, we needed some amount of adventure :).

Nutcracker 2017

 Heidi's ballet studio puts on a Nutcracker every December and we managed to go this year along with Bekah & Miss Jodi.  The big girls wore the Nutcracker themed skirts they made.  We all enjoyed the show, particularly since Heidi's teacher was the Nutcracker in the ballet!
