We decorated our trees yesterday! The kids took care of their own tree with candy canes ("Perfect!" says S):and Sponge Bob and other personalized ornaments. We had or annual "Christmas Cocoa" with whipped cream and candy canes: and plenty of Christmas music to keep the spirit of Christmas going. The cherry on top of our day was E going to a birthday party! Doesn't she look cute in her party dress? The party was for a little girl who is just two weeks younger than E that we know from Homeschool roller skating. At the party I met two other homeschooling moms with 4 year old girls who also have 7 year old boys! And one of the boys lives five minutes from us and uses the exact same curriculum that IJ uses.
So maybe there is hope that we will meet people here and make friends!
