Making The Memories...

Last night was going to be just an ordinary night...but then she actually was smiley and energetic...and wanted to make Grammie's Fudge.  She wanted the Holiday Music and she wanted to participate in stirring...she wanted to BE part of it!  

Considering the last few months---I took for what it was--an opportunity to make a memory...a good, wonderful memory.  

So, we made fudge. At 10:30 at night.  When I was tired from a long day.  When I started to grumble at the thought of it (internally)...and I was surprised what energy I got from it.

This evening---we put up the tree...it was a new tree that I bought at the end of the season last year, and I did not even open the box, just put it down in the basement.  So, it was like unwrapping a gift!  Also, in a bag I found some new ornaments that I had bought at the end of the season!  Score!

Its a pre-lit tree!!

I found someone in the box!  (Lennier ending up kicking her out!)

Decorations!

The new family ornament - Yetis!
