We are all decorated. With the exeption of our real Christmas tree which we will go and get more than likely next weekend with my parents. They will not be able to get one this year due to the fire at their house and the fact that they are still living at the Holiday Inn and will more than likely still be there until January. But hey there is a pool and Pearl loves swimming with her Dad and Pap Pap.
We are having a Christmas open house this weekend for the congregations of the two churches Corben serves, our family and friends. So that is why it has been smelling like Christmas around the Russell house this week. Bonnie, my mom and I have been baking cookies this week for Saturday. While Grandma has been making candy at her house.
Pearl is getting excited about Christmas. She has been dancing and singing with our 4 1/2 foot santa that sings. She has also been giving him lots of hugs and when she goes to bed she says bless you to him on her way to bed. Her Grandpap Price says that is because she is trying to butter him up for more gifts.
Pearl loves to drive around and look at all of the lights as we travel about during this Advent season. She ooo's and aw's the lights as we go past, but I've noticed that if she has oooed once she does not the next time we pass the house. Not sure why, but I do know there is a reason in the mind of hers.
Pearl went to see her first movie at a theater yesterday. We took her to see Santa Clause 3. She did great and liked the movie. Well the first 45 minutes of it than she fell asleep and woke up just in time to watch the credits and out takes. The movie was good and has a good message if you listen. I won't say any more incase you want to or are planning to go see it.
Well better get back to backing cookies and cleaning the house while Corben is at his men's breakfast and Pearl is spending time with Grandmas Price.
