A little weekend time and Red Envelopes

We rushed to St. Louis this weekend to start house hunting, so our Red Envelope stuff sort of happened, but some of it got a bit squished, but we're all caught up. 

Cocoa and Christmas music

a little cocoa stash

we got a new nativity set that we opened and put out together as we read the Christmas story from Luke.

the other activity we did was we got a willow tree ornament (angel) for Stella and hung it on the tree.  It's one where the angel is holding a lantern--the angel of hope it's called.  C loves it, and we do, too. 

Tonight we are headed to buy the last Xmas gifts--gifts for our doggies.  We are ALL going to Petco, dogs included to do a little shopping.  C was so excited when I told him.  He started cracking up.
