It's Beginning to Look A Lot Like Christmas

The tree was put up -This year Jeff's parents had given us their village & we decorated the mantle with it. Some older bulbs, along with my Hallmark ornament collection adorned the tree.And the kids' favorite: the train under the tree. The train, alone, entertained them for days - and hours upon hours.We had found a train whistle in our travels for a souvenir for Noah over the summer. He was constantly blowing his whistle & yelling, "All aboard!" I wish I could freeze time & keep the kids at 1 & 3 years old - they have so much joy.
