Face Time with Scotty

Leo likes to snap photos while we're facetiming with Scotty.

Working on our gum drop tree

 

And here it is, almost Christmas

It is really interesting and weird how people approach this pandemic.  Every year, we get a real Christmas tree.  We enjoy going to the lot and picking out a tree then love the fragrance the tree imparts in the house.  This year, we decided to forego the tree lot and we ordered a fake tree.  So we have a fake tree up in our house this year, due to the pandemic.  The reason why I say some some people are weird about how they think, is that most people usually put up fake trees every year and because of the pandemic they felt that this year merited a real tree.  For them a real tree is something special and out of the ordinary so it was needed this year.  The EXACT opposite of how we thought!  I think the tree is just beautiful.  And there's no worrying about it starting to get too dry!

This is how it looks outside right now.  Not very Christmas-like.

We ordered a poinsettia from Costco and had no idea it would be THIS big.  It's hard to tell in this picture but it is really way too big.

School Time after Thanksgiving.  Virtual school might not be the best but his school is doing a good job and Leo is learning a lot.  I am very grateful to be a part of his school days occasionally.

We had a very nice Thanksgiving!  It was extra special because Fernando and family spent two nights with us that weekend!

We drove around looking at Christmas lights, believe it or not, the night before Thanksgiving.  People are already going all out!

Snack time outside

Getting in another frog hunting trip!
