Here's what we did at the end of November...
My adorable girls made snow angels in the backyard
And we did one of my favourite things, put up the Christmas tree! We almost always put the tree up the last weekend of Novmember. We put Christmas music on the stereo, pull out all the decorations and of course have hot chocolate with marshmallows afterwards (lately we've been having hot chocolate with marshmallows quite often). The kids
bug me constantly wait patiently while I get the lights and ribbon on the tree, then it's time to crack open the ornament boxes. I always make sure to have a box with all non-breakables so the kids can just go crazy. The 3 of them did 90% of the ornaments by themselves this year and I think they did a great job. I only added a few balls and some of my personal favourites afterwards. The kids just love pulling out their own ornaments from years past, especially the homemade ones.
The kids all carefully selected branches for each ornament
