Can you believe that it is already December? OMG! Where did this year go? Earlier this week the boys and I started decorating our house for Christmas. Usually our tree is covered in gold and silver ornaments, but this year I thought it would be more fun for the boys to make our decorations together and have more of a handmade kids tree. The boys are at the most wonderful age :o)
We started off on Monday with a large packet of Fimo, some cookie cutters and some embossing folders.
Jarred in particular had a ball playing with the Fimo. We now have some cute little white Christmas trees, Gingerbread men and Bells.
Something else I've been meaning to do for a little while is to make some gingham decorations.
Oops - my little birdie started off with TWO legs, lol.... Booooyyysss!!!!
And then came the extra fun part - putting the tree up! We had a terrific morning, the boys were enthralled.
And finally, the finished tree (I redistributed some of the decorations when they weren't looking hehehe) and a couple of very excited little boys.
Oh - and every event has to end with the boys wrestling. Gosh they're funny little guys.
So that was the start of our week :o) It was loads of fun and I can't wait to do more! Christmas is for the kids after all.
Thanks for stopping by to visit :o)
Hehehe! your boys are just so cute and I had to laugh at them wrestling there at the end! Looks like they loved it and the decorations look gorgeous! We put our tree up yesterday too (and I rearranged when they weren't looking too LOL) big hugs! Jane xxx
