Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! I've always disliked that the Christmas greeting vanishes in the twinkling of an eye as soon as the day has passed. I say we keep spreading holiday cheer at least until the New Year! I hope you all had or are having a fabulous Christmastime! I know we did! There's really no such thing as a low-key holiday when we are with our families. Luckily for us, they live so close to one another (3.7 miles to be exact). That being said, it's also makes our visits more hectic. We count our blessing though, I prefer 3.7 miles over 37 miles! Like my mother-in-law said during this visit, at least we don't lose much time when we are traveling back and forth!
About half of my family made it for Christmas. With my family totaling 38 and counting (including spouses and their children) it gets more and more difficult to get everyone together at once! There were 19 of us staying at my mom and dad's house with an additional 6 coming and going at one point or another. Check the comments section later to see if I got any of those numbers right. ;)

That last picture is as far as he went before he lost interest. He loved his tee pee though!

I'll show you a picture of the completed tent next week. I have it set up in his bedroom so he can play in it anytime he wants. He's been in it quite a bit!

More pictures next week! I actually took a decent amount this time so I have plenty more to share!

How cute! So you actually made that teepee? I can't wait to see the whole thing. Hope you had a good Christmas. :)

Yes, I did make it. I still need to get some pictures so I can show the entire thing!
