The holidays are {almost} here!

Wow! I think the holidays snuck up faster on us this year! But, somehow, we have a bit of the shopping done and the tree up a week ahead of schedule. Took the photo and ordered the Christmas cards tonight too, so we are feeling a little ahead of the game!
Can't believe Thanksgiving is this week, and then it's the usual 3 or 4 weekends of scrambling to make sure all the gifts are bought, the cookies baked and frosted, and the Christmas cards are mailed. We are up for the challenge this year!

Mira and Amelia were a big help decorating the tree and putting up the decorations, and Mira was charged with arranging the snow village {"snow" to come after I visit Joann Fabrics tomorrow!}:
Here are a few outtakes from the Christmas card photo {plus the first one in this post}:
Happy holidays, everyone!
