Christmas season

We've been busy this month. Lots of fun stuff going on. In the first picture I found Rina in Grandma's living room with roll of wrapping paper. She had fun with that.

Picture two is Karina playing with her cousin at a tree decorating party we went to. They were sitting on an empty container that had held ornaments. They figured out if the both sat on the edge of it just so they could tip it over. Of course they then fell on the ground but that was the fun. The giggled madly over that for a while.

In the third and fourth picture we attempted Rice Krispie treat snow men. It was fun and tasty but didn't turn out just right. The M&Ms that were supposed to be the decorations didn't stick to the snowmen but the kids didn't care. Jr enjoyed making them but wouldn't taste them. Rina wanted to eat them but didn't care about the process. They compliment each other well.

The four of us (Sal, Jr, KJ and I) all went to pick out a Christmas tree. The kids loved it. All the trees hanging up reminded me of some back room of a butcher shop, only festive and fragrant! I had to stop Jr from karate chopping all the trees we walked by. It was pretty cute. KJ picked up on the karate chopping pretty quickly. Decorating it was fun too. Keeping Rina off of it is not.

And finally today we tried painting. Very frustrating to me. Karina is not really old enough to follow direction but both kids loved painting. I got washable paint so there's not too much damage.

Tomorrow we're making cookies and putting up the tree at Grandma April's and Grandpa Steve's house! I love when my kids get to have fun experiences!

Those rice krispie snowmen are cute--looks like they had a good time. Hard to believe Junior wouldn't like them if he'd try them.
