Well, it actually began last week when we got our Christmas tree, but, it seems the Christmas season always begins after we celebrate Worth's birthday. He turned 34 on Sunday the 8th. The girls and I made him a cookie cake and we ordered ribs (he loves ribs, I'm not a fan) for his birthday dinner. He was kind of pitiful on his birthday because he was on heart call all day (he didn't get called in, so I guess that was good.) I think he enjoyed dinner and his "made with love" cookie cake.
After his birthday, Monday kicked off in high gear with the preschool Christmas pageant. Ellie was Mary in the pageant this year, and Emma was a drummer girl. My heart was swollen with pride when I found out the part Ellie would play. I did have a talk with her about how special Mary was and how Mary didn't pick her nose, jump up and down, twirl, flip, etc. when she was with baby Jesus. She did awesome though! I couldn't have been more proud of Emma as well. She sang her heart out and played her drum like a professional. It was so much fun and there is nothing like hearing the Chirstmas story from preschoolers to get you in the Christmas spirit.
We've got tons more going on over the next few weeks so get ready for photo overloading!
