Dana's bedtime story of choice these days is Llama Llama Holiday Drama. She loves the last page with Llama Llama's stocking. When we reach that page I always ask her what she thinks Santa will put in her stocking. These are her three most recent answers:

- Cheese
- Pancakes with tons of syrup
- Dana

I can finally check "Put Halloween Decorations away" off my todo list, almost a full two weeks after I checked off "Set up first Christmas Tree". #priorities

I thought about putting up Thanksgiving decorations, but I'm currently grumpy with the holiday. It'll be a year since I last saw my family and I miss them.

Missed one

I held off setting up the Christmas tree as long as I could.

One more sleep!

I've been taking photos where the only light source is the Christmas tree for a few years now. Ever year I realize after the fact that I should have been using a tripod. Oh well, maybe next Christmas.

74 burnt out light bulbs from our tree, at least 50 of which were definitely working when the tree was trimmed last week. I’m no electrical engineer, but I’m pretty sure this means Everything.Is.Fine.

It took over an hour and 47 dead bulbs replaced, but the top section of our tree is finally lit again. Let’s hope it stays that way for more than three days this time.

Loved our new Santa Cookie plate. Hated all the photos I took of it on Christmas Eve, so I decided to stage another one with a left over cookie.
