Advent Day 1

We are setting up a little xmas village next to our Advent activity tree. The first drawer opened this morning sent Sky on a treasure hunt into fridge, under tree & upstairs;-)

Daddy is outside putting glitter spray paint on dollar store xmas village buildings to make them look a little less....dollar store;-)

Tonight we will light the first of 4 sunday nights of advent candles. This weeks is minerals, stones, shells and bones so we will place what we have around the candles.

Happy magic season!!!!

Day with Papa and Weezie (8/16)

While Eric and Auburn traveled to Carson City with a U-Haul truck to move Gigi furniture, Ed and Louise spent the day with Sky in Grass Valley. All went very well, very easy, fun. But by the time, Aub and Eric returned,  Sky was very happy to see them. She said, "You are my very favorites."
