Advent Countdown: December 3 to 6-Snow, Christmas Trees and Lots of Fun!!!

Sorry we didn't get to post for the last 3 days!
Today we are going to do three times the normal amount of posting. Our first topic is the snow.

We are so excited that we get to have snow to play in!! We are blessed to have several hills in our yard that are good for sledding! It is supposedly going to snow a lot in the next few days. So, hopefully, we will have enough snow to cover the grass!! (We have had enough snow to cover the grass, but it melted!)Today we went to our friend's house, they live close to our house yet only had a small amount of snow. Not really enough to sled. So I (Abby) am glad that we have a good amount of snow. I know that some places got a lot of snow and some didn't get that much snow.

Our next topic is getting a Christmas Tree.

Our friends had found a Christmas tree spot. The man that owns the place gives all the money to help people. It is in his back yard. We went there and looked at the trees for 20 minutes then picked out one. We really like our Christmas tree. Yesterday we put lights on the tree. Tomorrow we are going to put ornaments on the tree.

Our next topic is on Mom and Naomi having a tea party.


On Friday Naomi (Our almost 2-year-old sister,) asked me (Leah) to make her dolly a highchair of blocks. I made her a highchair out of blocks like she asked and she said she wanted to have a tea party. I put beanbags in a pile so that two more of her dollies could have tea with her. I brought her a chair and she said "Get Mommy." She ran up the stairs and tried to tell mommy she wanted a tea party (I helpd translate.) Mom came and they had tea. This was very funny to me because Abby and Mom had had a tea party about a week earlier with china. Naomi used her play food and her "highchair" and looked quite funny. That is how she came to have tea with Mom.
