Start of Christmas Season...

The Friday after Thanksgiving Grandma Marjean came to visit, Mommy and Grandma went black Friday shopping, and then we all got the house ready for Christmas. Aubrey went with Daddy and Uncle Jay to get the tree...she ended up being a bit of a handful. Caleb was extremely happy to have the tree and was extremely helpful in getting the house decorated.

The kids were excited to get a Christmas tree.

The kids helped Grandma Marjean set up the Christmas train to go under the tree.

Aubrey was having a great time!

Decorating the tree together :)

Caleb really enjoyed decorating the tree. He did an awesome job!

Aubrey liked to help for the first couple of minutes...

And then she was done :)

Caleb kept going!

More decorating...

And then a story before bed.

Then that Saturday we headed to one of Craig's sister's house to make lefsa, krumkake, and kringla. It was a fun, new experience... The kids had fun playing with the other kids.

Cheesy Aubrey :)

Some of the ladies in the kitchen!

It's a tradition for the kids to roll the pumpkins down the hill and into the ditch.

The kids thought it was fun!
