there's been lots of christmas activity around here lately.  lucy's constantly talking about going to see santa.  fortunately santa is down on pearl street every saturday.  and we've spotted santa quite a few times lately here and there.  we were downtown for the parade of lights last weekend and despite the single digit temps we had a lot of fun.  lucy enjoyed it quite a bit and didn't want to leave.  tonight we went to the library and watched a free holiday dance show.  did i mention i love our library! 

i can't believe it's two weeks 'till christmas!

look at the three little ornaments lucy put up all right next to each other, so cute

gingerbread we decorated at church for advent brunch

first christmas gift under the tree! it lasted 5minutes.  we are NOT putting any more presents under the tree until lucy goes to bed on dec. 24th
