Holiday Happenings

 Lola loves to take baby Jesus from our nativity and carry him around with her. Here, she's putting him back with his mommy & daddy, which she does very well.
 I saw this idea for an Advent calendar on Etsy.com and Dan helped me get the materials and make our own (for a lot cheaper!) It's a frame with chicken wire attached, and inside the little bags are ornaments that Lola gets to put on her tree each day. I really love it, and think I might keep it around all year for her artwork or pictures.
 Again...putting baby Jesus back with his parents :)
 Stanek's nursery had 2 reindeer at their store for a few weeks. We went to see them, and since we were the only ones there, the owner let us feed them raisins. Lola loved them, and I was surprised at how enchanted I was with them too! We could have stayed there all day.
 Yeah...totally cool. I came home and told Dan that I think we should have a Christmas tree farm and reindeer on his family's property at Peone Prairie. He didn't really take to the idea though.
 My Aunt Terry sent us an online advent calendar that we do every day as well. Lola asks to look at all of the past days with Dan when he comes home. She LOVES it!
 Our friends Meghan & David came to Spokane for a visit. We went to Christmas tree Elegance and ate yummy food all weekend. They should move to Spokane since they love it so much:)
And we love them!
Heading out the door, ready for the cold weather!
