It is snowing here today, and Thade is thrilled. He loves the snow.
We have just a little snow, but I think it totally counts as the first snow of the season.
Tonight we are going to the Holiday Parade at 6:00 p.m., and it looks like it is going to be really really cold. This is one of my favorite parades. All of the Floats have Christmas Lights and many of the businesses and area Churches will be serving Hot Chocolate to keep everybody warm. Thade can’t wait to see Santa, and I can’t wait to get a few pictures of the merriment.

Thanksgiving week was filled with lots of yummy treats from the kitchen.
There was plenty of dessert for all.
The kiddos were anxious for everyone to visit on Thanksgiving, but the kitties napped in the sunshine all day.
Thanksgiving was filled with tasty food, big hugs, and lots of fun! After dinner we all played a round of Apples to Apples, and everyone had a great time. The kiddos had fun too, and way too many homemade goodies.

The Tree Skirt is complete, and so is the Christmas decorating too!
I finished sewing the binding on this afternoon, and I really like how the tree skirt turned out. I think the kitties will enjoy taking naps under the tree, at least until the presents get there.
