We had a full weekend and were able to get into the Christmas spirit, which is my FAVORITE time of year! I look forward to decorating the second I feel the crisp autumn air approaching! It is so much fun to share our Christmas traditions with Milo. Here he is helping us make some cookies.
We had some friends over for a Christmas lunch which was very fun, as it always is with these girls!
Later on we went to see the "Christmas train" which our brother-in-law Don has seen many times on his ride into work and said it was a "must see!" We had to rush to get there but it was super fun and the kids seemed to enjoy it.
After the train we went down to the Christkindel market in Daley Plaza where there is German food and cute little houses selling German glass ornaments. (Eric and I went Thanksgiving weekend too and got Milo an ornament which didn't survive the day!) We bought the kids their yearly ornament and Milo got his replacement train ornament.
We were even brave enough to take all three kids to Legoland, which was really fun. They had a full room of Chicago built in Legos, pretty impressive!
