Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, but we have already kicked off the holiday celebrations around here. Last weekend Milan participated in a musical number at the Gingerbread Display Ribbon Cutting. She did a wonderful job and we had fun checking out all the creative displays.
Since we were in Council Bluffs, we swung by Bass Pro Shops to visit Santa Claus. It was pretty early in the season so we got to see the jolly old guy without any lines! It was perfect! Milan asked for a microphone stand, Eden asked for a pink teddy bear, and Cora requested an Ariel Barbie. They also posed for this cute picture! (Excuse the photo of a photo.) I am all finished with my Christmas shopping and now Santa can finish up their gifts too :).
Today we invited Milan's friend, Bailie, over for our annual graham cracker house decorating. This year we used our old Halloween Candy, which was brilliant. Everyone had a great time and ate way too much sugar. Luckily, we had a beautiful day so the girls spent most of the day outside burning off energy and enjoying the day.
Thanksgiving break is off to a great start! I could really get used to these low key holiday celebrations with our little family!
