How's it going?! Happy Holidays! It's been busy around our house getting ready for the holidays! We spent Thanksgiving in Chaska with Jay's family. I made a Cinnamon Banana Cream Pie and it was a huge hit! It is delicious and the recipe I used can be found here.
I also consulted with Pinterest. Ella and I turned our boring veggie tray into a Turkey Masterpiece!
TA DA!
gobble, gobble
The weekend after Thanksgiving, Jay braved the stores for a bit, and Ella and I decorated....and decorated...and I'm still not done (have the outside to do yet!) It takes forever to get everything decorated!!
Our 2015 Christmas Tree
We put it in front of the window looking into the backyard this year. Last year (first time in our new house) we put it in the corner due to furniture layout, etc. but we all like it MUCH better in front of the window. Part of the decorating included rearranging the entire living room to make room for the tree!
Smurf Elf arrived yesterday, December 1st with a little note and a gift of some Elf on the Shelf PJs for Ms. Ella. She was super excited!
And today, Day 2, Smurf Elf was very tricky hiding in a basket of ornaments near the fireplace. It took Ella a long time to find him!
We love the Elf on the Shelf tradition at our house - looking forward to a weekend of shopping, wrapping and heading to the City tree lighting event! Bring on the hot chocolate and Christmas cookies!
