It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Nana & Papa decided 2016 was the year to downsize their Xmas Tree.  Well...... and the fact that they left their 14 ft tree from last year up the whole year resulting in many of the branches bending and breaking......also helped them make the decision to downsize! 

And another trip to let the big guy know what to bring down that chimney is in the books!

And they both still want to somehow squeeze themselves in the little train for ride around the mall!

Each year gets easier and easier when we put up all the Christmas Decorations!  Kate and Will get VERY excited to put up the trees and look at all their ornaments and decorations as they hang them up for the holidays.

And as always, they fight over who gets to put up the 12 days of Christmas ornaments.

They did a nice job!

We actually celebrated the Schaefer Xmas at Thanksgiving this year as Gene and Carla are out of town over Xmas this year.  Pie Face was a huge hit with the kids this year!

And I got an early Xmas gift this year when my coffee pot bit the dust.  I have always wanted a Bunn Coffee Pot, but they are pretty pricey!  I am truly a coffee nut and decided it was time to fulfill my Xmas wish just a few weeks early!
