Caroline and Mommy put our crafting skills to the test and made some salt dough handprint ornaments (looong process, but cute results!), and Caroline was treated to a viewing of the play "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" with one of her best friends. Last weekend we saw the Christmas pageant at church, and then Caroline co-hosted (with Big C) her "Cookies and Crafts with the Carolines!" party. This weekend we took a holiday lights tour and decorated a gingerbread house. Brace yourself: there's a ho-ho-whole lot of holiday pictures ahead ;-)
