Christmas Fun Before Christmas


The girls and I got to walk around down town Lodi while the guys finished watching the new Chronicles of Narnia movie... We got to see Santa! He was parked in front of the Antiquarium... a newish store with way too many cute things inside. So many that its hard to focus in on anything!


Here's a peek inside. Francesca enjoyed the many Christmas tree displays.


Saying hello to the annual Santa Bear in front of the RockyMountain Chocolate Factory.

Vincent strung up some lights on the tree house.

And the Christmas tree! The boys brought the tree in and set it up in the stand.
Vincent did the lights. It was great! All I got to do was the fun part, ornaments.


Fresca had fun digging into the boxes of decorations.


Here's a new ornament I bought on etsy.com. It was made by my friend Sharon.

Veronica's been enjoying the lights this first Christmas for her.


A surprise visit from Santa at our home!
