Floor dining & Christmas decorating

The kids have been asking to have a picnic since Friday, but it has just been too cold to do it. However, Andrew's teachers informed me that he was wonderful at church, so we rewarded him with something he had been asking for. We picked up hamburgers and fries for lunch and had a floor picnic. I guess it is special anytime we eat somewhere other than the kitchen table. After our picnic we started decorating for Christmas. The kids were great helpers and it was definitely the fastest our tree has ever gone up. I am usually doing it by myself or the kids are spreading pieces everywhere, but they are finally big enough to sort branches by color and bring them to us.

I love you, silly Andrew!
He and Evie climbed into bed with me really early in the morning over the weekend (like they usually do to Mom every single day) and Andrew lay there quietly "snoring" like he was asleep! It was so cute - if only it were so true for Mom.
