the sixth day of advent

Six days into December and we're fast ticking off our Christmas activities list. We're drinking, we're decorating, we're singing, we're watching (Christmas specials), we're crafting. We're not yet baking. Absence of cookies is the only way I can maintain will power. Like the kids, I cannot resist sugar especially when paired with its best buddy - butter.

Our Christmas elf in his new uniform.

Jingle bells,

jingle bells,

jingle all the way.
My happy decorator.

Kate doesn't know how close Mommy came to tossing this in the garbage during the build phase.

A little Noel Nog anyone? The kids don't know what they're missing with the milk based egg nog so they're thrilled with almond milk. Mama... not so much.

Like everyone our calendar is starting to get busy. The plan is to take it all in stride and try to have as merry a time as possible. Hope everyone can manage the same. I know my parents will as they're heading South for the three weeks of holidays.  A tad bit jealous as we drown in rain. Cody and I are off to Montreal next week for a quick trip so perhaps we can catch some more seasonable weather.

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas. Peace.
Aimee
