Fun with Felix

Dylan was the lucky one to spend last week with the class frog, Felix!  Each child gets the opportunity to have a sleepover with Felix during the school year and record their adventures in the class journal.  I was glad that we took pictures the first night Felix was home with us, because Dylan seemed to forget all about him the next day (Felix spent the next day wedged between our couch cushions, but we didn't mention that "adventure" in the journal!)
 
 
Snack time with Felix (Felix was sad we didn't have bugs to eat, but pretzels and hummus were okay too).

Oh Christmas Tree! 2012

I love having an extra week between Thanksgiving and Christmas!!  Our tree is up, the house is decorated and now we can sit back and enjoy it all!  I can even do a few more projects than I normally would since I have extra time.
 
 
Surprisingly, Dylan helped decorate the tree more than Reagan did.  She was holding out to put the angel at the top.

 
It was looking a little bottom heavy . . .

 
Ah, there we go.  A few more toward the middle of the tree.

 
Ta Da! Complete?

 
Now the tree is complete!
(Notice how the ornaments magically spaced themselves out :))
