Decorations, Santa, and Thanksgiving

I've been behind on my posts lately and that is probably because I don't feel like writing anything. I haven't been feeling well the past week or so and I am using that as my poor excuse to be somewhat lazy!
So to catch you all up on what has gone on in our lives. We put up all our Christmas decorations and the girls had a blast decorating the tree. As you can see a lot of the decorations are on the bottom and I will leave it exactly the way they decorated it. I love it!





The day before Thanksgiving we took the kids to the mall to go have a visit with Santa. All day I had been telling them that we were going to go see Santa and sit on his lap and tell him what we want for Christmas, because 'Santa gives us toys on Christmas'. They were so excited to go. When we get there, they see him sitting there and get all excited saying 'Santa Santa'. Zoey went first and she did awesome and then it was the girls' turn and they didn't do so well. I walked Scarlett up to him and she just started crying and didn't want to get anywhere near him. Dan was holding Hawley and she was doing the same thing. Finally Santa slid over so Dan could sit by him and hold the girls. Hawley went first and she told Santa what she wanted and was very excited to get some candy. Scarlett was hesitant to go even though she would be able to sit on Dan's lap, but she did and she talked to Santa for a bit and then got her candy. They waved and said goodbye and were happy as can be. Silly girls! Sorry about these pics, they were taken by Jenna's camer and she doesn't know how to work it.




Thanksgiving was a good time. We went to Delta and just hung out with family. We stayed until Saturday so we could go to the tree festival and then we came home. I didn't take any pictures, because I am so scatterbrained and completely forgot.
So there is an update of what is going on in our house. Nothing to exciting, but as long as things aren't crappy, I'll take it.
Oh by the way I am so excited because I am completely DONE with my Christmas shopping! YEAH!!!!!
