'Tis the Season

Christmas is by far my favorite time of year, but I just can't get into it prior to Thanksgiving. It all gets so lumped together and I feel like we miss out on the fall celebrations by rushing Christmas. Anyway, all that to say we are now officially ready for the season! Uptown decorates to the nines each Christmas and it's become our family tradition to go uptown on the day after Thanksgiving. Carver and Springer loved all the trees, lights, toy soldiers and reindeer. G's family typically spends Thanksgiving with us and joins in this little jaunt. They were not able to come this year and were dearly missed! Carver's pants had matching toy soldiers...he thought that was quite cool!


Springer loved the 'balls' (one of her most favorite words!)

Amanda,
I love the picture of Carver hugging Springer. How cute! Looks like a Hallmark original! Can't wait to see all of you. Hugs and kisses to the children. Love, Nana and Pops.
