Decorating

Christmas is coming to fast.  To fast.  Faster than last year.  Which is to fast.  I decided I should put up some pictures of the decorations in the house.  Here we go.

This is the tree in the basement.
Every year us we get out three little trees that we put in our rooms.  (The kids.)
One in the girls', one in mine, and one in my brother's.
This year since the girls aren't sharing a room they each got an individual tree.
I got this.
I'd say it was a pretty good trade.

Here is the desk in the school room.
Decked out with stockings, music boxes, and pictures.
All Christmas of course.

Here is a little nativity set.
Good to have a reminder of what this is all about.

The fireplace is always the most spectacular thing.
And of course the tree.

New run in

Dad and I are building a new run in.  It is in the second field for Crumple.  It is so that we can dry up Faith because Mom and Shelby are done milking her.  We got Crumple the nose ring but it didn't work so now the run in is being built.  So far we have the frame up. Now we just need to put on the plywood.

Who here has heard that song "Do you hear what I hear."?  I think that is what it is called.  That song is weird.  Don't think so?  Watch this.

See!
Weird song.
Merry Christmas.

Mockingjay

Who here likes the hunger games?  I do. Shelby and I are going to see mockingjay on Thursday.  We've seen both the other movies. But the part that kind of stinks is that it is mockingjay part one. Part one!  Oh well. At least there will be another one to watch later on.

As you have probably read on my sister's blog Crumple got a nose ring. It has a pad with spikes on the front. Supposedly it keeps the calf from nursing.  Only the smart ones figure out how to still nurse with it. Crumple is smart. So his little piece of jewelry didn't work.

I need to start Christmas shopping soon. Christmas is in 22 days. Only a day over three weeks!  Big fun!
