Another of my holiday goals was to do something magical with Grace three times each week. So far, our magical things have been playing in the snow, going to the beach, making sand art, and decorating our Christmas tree.

Since I lost the battle to have a stylish matchy-matchy Christmas tree, I haven’t found a lot of joy in decorating for Christmas.

It was magical this year.

Gracie Claus showed up to help with the decorating.

I have so much to tell you about this photo. Tomorrow.

I’m pretty sure she’s 7 in this picture.

Apparently, when you’re two-and-a-half, decorating involves dumping all of the ornaments onto the floor and admiring them from a distance.

This is my favorite shot. Can you tell?

Sustenance.

Decorating is hard work.

Tomorrow, I’ll string together some sentences and tell you all about the decorating.
