Jingle Bell left us a goodbye note this morning, which is always a bittersweet sort of moment. The bitter is the goodbye, but the sweet is that he's going back to the North Pole because Christmas is coming soon!
We've been pretty busy lately, as things gear up for the big day. We watched all kinds Christmas movies today as we wrapped - and made an awesome gingerbread house.
We were decorating cookies, gingerbread houses, and watching all kinds of Christmas movies, like "Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas," "Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas," "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever," and ... "Swiss Family Robinson?" Yes, it has a Christmas scene in it. We were determined to make up for the reading of the book recently, and wanted to sit and watch the movie, which is so much better. And it turns out there's a Christmas scene in there, with the family celebrating Christmas and the return of the exploring older sons. And yes, Madison enjoyed it so much more, as did Mommy and Daddy, who were also stopping for a moment to rest on the couch.
It's Christmas Eve Eve, which means wrapping and sending final cards and phone calls and so on. It's an exciting time! Just two more days until Christmas!
