Trimming the Tree

This year we have our mini-tree. I was determined to NOT put it up, and to get a "real" tree....but LIFE had other plans for us, as it so often does. So I got the tree out, put garland on it, and picked through all my ornaments to choose ones that we could put on this tree. Then I let the kids get to work. The light in their eyes, the excitement about it, the "ooohhhh" and "aaahhh".....warms my heart just thinking about it. :) Children accept and are happy with what ever we are happy with. So though the original thought of putting up our mini-fake-tree broke my heart and made me want to cry, the children's joy and excitement about it had me telling my husband last night I don't want a different tree this year. My kids love it, then I love it. :) ..... oh, and added sidenote... I "fixed" the ornaments all clustered together when they weren't looking... LOL

Cookie Time!!!

Okay, this Mama LOVES to cook...but she does NOT bake! :) Nope...I am terrible! But the kids love it....so we made cookies. And yes, I still managed to burn these, too!

Just a few random pictures.... Hanging out at the playground in our complex....

And more outside fun.... the rain came within minutes of these pics, but when you are stuck with no car, you have to take advantage of getting outside whenever you can. :)
