Back at Mama Dixie's home and putting up the Christmas Village... I had so much fun doing this with my mom. I have heaps and heaps of photos of the village, but it would take up too much of the blog.



Our Christmas tree... I'm such a Christmas nut. I love everything about it. Giving gifts, the light, apple cider, hot coco, trees, snow, music and seeing family.... and heaps heaps more... COOKIES




My old Hockey skate !!!



Zeric loved helping us decorate the tree !! every morning when he wakes up and we go down stairs. He points the living room and says "christmas tree" in his baby babble and I take him in there. As he points the the tree, He then sayd "lights !!" or "yights" in his language ;)
