We are finally settling back into being home from our Thanksgiving trip. We are all completely exhausted, so today was a pretty relaxed day. After we did some school work, we hung out and watched a Peanuts special I had taped that followed the Thanksgiving episode.
As you can see, I put up a new graphic and changed the font colors on my blog template. I made that before Thanksgiving, which is good because I was much too tired today to take on something like that. I want to get in the mood to decorate for Christmas, so I thought I would start here.
I want to have the house decorated by December 1st.
I also want to do a kids’ Christmas or winter craft every day from December 1 through Christmas. If I follow through with it, I will post projects and pictures here. That is mighty ambitious, though. We will have to see. 
I’ll leave you with a picture from our trip. This is a tree my father-in-law cut down in their yard. That’s him on the left, Little E, Big D, Big E, and Not-So-Crafty Daddy.

That’s not a tree - that’s Jack’s beanstalk. Good grief, that tree is huge.

What an awesome tree! And kudos on the decorating by Dec. 1st. That’s my goal as well…although the dh thinks it’s too early even then.
