Photos from our post-Disney week here. We returned from Florida, and on the second day of the drive I sat in the back seat with Charlotte to help with school work. A couple days after we got home it snowed. School was remote for the week so there was plenty of time to play outside (for the two who enjoy it). We've had the fireplace on almost continuously and got the tree up. Zach tried his hand at putting on the lights, which I was excited about because it's always the most tedious job. Charlotte was excited about the It's a Small World ornament (and annoyed her brothers with the music) and all the baby's first Christmas ornaments, that she grouped together in a spot on the tree. We had few commitments last week, which was a nice break. Zach was invited to be one of a few Boy Scouts to lead the Pledge of Allegiance at our town tree-lighting. Usually most of the town is there in person, but this year it was featured on the news/Facebook only, including a short tribute by Dean Cain. He was shooting part of a movie that night (one article here) and the boys had a photo with him. I don't know the exact context, but Zach apparently told him that his favorite superhero is Spider-Man :)
And Ally the Elf is back at our house. She has been pretty low-key...just the way I like it, though Zach made her a "prank kit" that includes a grappling hook she used to climb above the pantry. She tried to get the kids to watch "A Very Monkey Christmas" for old times sake, but they turned it down. They are too old for the kid movies, but it was worth a shot!
