Weekend with Matilda


Micah's Pre-K class takes turns taking care of Matilda the stuffed gorilla during the course of the year. Early December marked our weekend with Matilda, something that Micah took very seriously and was very excited about. Matilda helped us put up our Christmas tree this year, which was a special situation in and of itself. Thankfully the owners of our rental home store a Christmas tree in the garage and they were kind enough to let us use it this season. The boys picked out blue lights at the store (it actually turned out to be pretty cool looking) and we purchased a couple small sets of while, silver, blue and red ball ornaments since we do not yet have access to our own Christmas decorations (...we don't even know if they survived the tornado as all was stored in our attic :-/...). I think we will have to setup a small tree with blue light and said balls next year in honor of our Christmas spent in the rental. When all was said and done the boys enjoyed some candy canes (and Matilda did too, of course!).
