Our friend Margaret came for lunch yesterday and brought her nail polish. The girls were excited to see all of the designs Margaret can make on fingernails including Christmas decorations. When Margaret was through Alyson had 1 Santa, eight reindeer, and Rudolph on her nails. Ellary opted for alternating candy cane stripes and reindeer, and Kourtney requested ladybugs. You can see how beautifully they turned out. We are blessed to have Margaret as a friend not because she knows how to make the girls happy with nail polished but because she is a very genuine and fun person. It was great getting together with her!
Before bedtime the kids and I sat at the table around Oma's lit Christmas tree. We drank hot chocolate, ate candy canes and gingerbread men as we played Uno and listened to an old Elvis Presley Christmas record of Oma's. We enjoyed the glow from the candles and had fun playing Uno together. It was a mix of Allee/Farnsworth traditions! We look forward to doing this again several more times before Christmas.
