Decking the Halls

There is a sweet little couple in our neighborhood that over the years have become like parents to Rob and I and grandparents to our kids. Alma was diagnosed with Alzheimer's a little over a year ago and that leaves Carole to have to take care of everything since she does not have any children near by. Brandy, Dave, Jared, Cassidy, Rob and I decided it would be fun for Family Home Evening to put their Christmas Tree up and decorate their home for Christmas. Of course Carole would never allow us to do this without feeding us dinner before hand and we weren't about to turn down her wonderful cooking!



Jared enjoying the delicious pecan pie Carole made for him (actually she made it because she knew Cassidy loved pecan pie).



The three WISE women!



We decided the tree was worthy of being in the Festival of Trees!



What a cute family!




Oh no - the kids caught Mommy kissing Santa Claus!

That was a nice evening! Nothing like decorating and helping others to really feel the Christmas spirit!

Must you two always be smooching?! Only kidding, I love all your captions on this blog -- very clever!
