I love decorating our home for the holidays this time of year. Most of our decorations came from a store and are used year after year . . .
. . . but some are more natural and temporary, like these colorful leaves the kids and I brought home today, or the little pumpkins (I think it would be fun to grow our own in a garden some day).
I also bought an amaryllis bulb this week, just like my mom has done for more years than I can remember. Those flowers always make me think of home and Christmastime. Hopefully ours will bloom around Christmas next month.
On a different note, the kids and I made peanut butter cookies this evening. They turned out a little crumbly (I think I made the dough too wet), but the kids still enjoyed them . . .
. . . almost as much as they enjoyed making silly faces for the camera.
