It's Beginning to Look alot Like Christmas!

At the stroke of December we starting prepping for Christmas.  We went to get our tree on Saturday, and Avery was very confused.  "We can't get our tree Mommy, it's not dark."  We usually go on a week night.  Funny kid.
The kids helped me decorate the tree.  Malin by eating the beads, and Avery pulled the ornaments out of the boxes for me, exclaiming "so beautiful' each time.
The finished product.  Mommy is crazy anal about the tree (and alot of other things).  Luckily Avery carries this gene too so she's been my little helper keeping the rest of the Hunt clan away from the tree. :)
Avery "read" Malin the story of Lola the Elf.  (our Elf on the Shelf).  I will be very sad to see Lola go back to the North Pole after Christmas, she has been keeping tight reigns on Avery!
We ventured to Bellevue to see Santa.  Things looked promising... until they saw the big guy.  Total melt down by Avery (she's actually sitting on my lap) and Malin was a lost little puppy.
We got our frost on.  We attended the Snoqualmie tree lighting event - in 15 degree weather.  Too cold!  I took Avery to see her first theater movie - Frozen.  We both loved it, in fact, I cried.  We will be purchasing that movie for sure!
We went to Avery's soccer buddy, Kaylee's 4th birthday party.
Malin is trying desperately to keep up with big sis.  I fear she may be walking by Christmas.  How did she get that big already?!
We went on the Snoqualmie Santa Train with our good friends, the Kearns'.
We waited in line to see Santa.  Well, Avery peered in the window and had enough.  I love this picture!  Santa trying to console poor stranger danger Malin and Madeline thought Santa and his beard was fascinating.  Too cute!
Wishing you and your families the Merriest of Christmases!
