It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

Ashten was "Rockin' around the Christmas Tree" this morning while she decorated the tree! They did a great job and both Ian and Ashten are eagerly awaiting the arrival of Larry the Elf on Monday afternoon...hope he comes!

Ian needed a little help getting the decorations all the way to the top! He wanted to do it like Buddy in "Elf" and jump off the couch and bear hug the tree. Ashten held on so he wouldn't crash into the tree.

The tree is done, decorated by Ashten and Ian. It's the Saturday after Thanksgiving and we spent this morning getting the tree ready. Ian just has to do the train around the bottom and it will be complete! Wow, it's spectacular!

Ian's Weather Project

Ian had to create a weather project and he wanted to make a tornado. You can see his tornado is ripping through Iantown leaving all kinds of destruction in it's wake. There are overturned cars, bridge destruction and buildings and trees down all over the city. Great job Ian!
