It's Beginning to Look a lot like Christmas
It has actually looked like Christmas for a while now at the Davies house. Yes we put up our tree the weekend before Thanksgiving. Cutting down our Christmas tree is maybe my favorite day of the year. We cut it down, decorate the entire house, eat pizza, drink wine, and watch Christmas Vacation while enjoying the night. We typically do this the weekend after Thanksgiving, but because I was going to be in Chicago as part of Operation Katie and Ben's wedding (a very successful trip by the way), and decorating a week later was totally out of the question, the obvious choice was to pick the weekend before. Plus we had Gammie and Pop Pop's help and company for my favorite day. Kate was not quite sure about the Christmas tree at first. She stayed away from it for about a week, but now tentatively examines it from time to time.
We've had our first few snows as of late and Kate has been introduced to its joys and that of having to bundle up. If the Santa post didn't remind you of the movie The Christmas Story maybe the above picture will.

"I can't put my arms down!" What WAS Ralphie's brother's name? It DOES look a lot like Christmas at the MI Davies home! Can't wait to see you all in a couple of weeks! Love, Mom and Dad/Gammie and Pop Pop
We had the same conversation at our house. Raphie's brother was Randy.

Good call Kristen! Kate looks too funny on the floor like that. Can't wait to be up there for Christmas!
Love,
