More Christmas Decorations

I went over to Amy's house to watch the Army-Navy game and to help put up her tree. Had a great time ~ there were frequent breaks for lots of trash talk via the phone between Amy and Jim.  Luckily, Navy won.  Just think, this time next year, we will host a big Army-Navy party at our new house in Durham!!!!!!!!!

We did get her tree up:

If you look closely, you can see Amy's legs behind her tree.  She ducked my photo opportunity.

I made homemade gingerbread cookies for Amy.  These are the last three of 20 that I made.  Bear in mind, I don't like gingerbread, so you know who ate them!

Not to leave our house out, I started putting the tree up in the living room.  And, of course, I had supervision ~ not a lot of help, and not really a lot of supervision.......

 

For a moment, too bad I couldn't leave it like this.

Melanie likes to watch upside down. And to leave Bennett the littlest amount of room on the sofa.

And, he really doesn't care what happens, as long as he can be close to the action.

Next, the Christmas letter.  I still have some shopping to do, Cookies for Cops......take Mom shopping.......Oh, Mom wanted to go to watch the Army-Navy game with a bunch of Dad's classmates and their wives, so I took her and dropped her off.  She did take her walker - and I was glad because when I went to get her, the host was coming out of the club house and fell.  I picked him up, luckily no blood and he looked ok.  Mom told me that Garnett Bailey had also fallen in the same place!!!  I am really glad that Mom did not make the trifecta!

And, I have to close with this cute little ornament that Amy doesn't like - a cute albino squirrel. How cute is that? Anyway, she gave it to me, and I hid it in her house, somewhere.  

So cute, but where am I? (Did you notice that I used cute 4 times?)

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...........

Love, Leslie
