November: Christmas Decorating, A Craft Fair, Kevin the Elf, Thanksgiving Day Walk and Pink Friday! Oh My!

Tree Trimming and Decorating.


It is a process...it takes days.





 But eventually the angels find their spot atop of the trees.



The decorating process inspires a list to Santa.


I organized a craft fair to raise funds for the Alaska Dance Theatre each year.   This year Amelia made lots of slime to sell.   She couldn't be there as she had ice skating, but her friend obliged showing it off.


Sold all the slime and raised a good chunk of money for ADT!


Right before Thanksgiving, Kevin the Elf showed up.  Can you spot him?  Amelia is reading his note.


Thanksgiving was quiet, just the way we like it.  Ended the day with a sunset walk with the hope the bears were to bed by now. 





Next day...Pink Friday!


We headed out at 8AM for our mom and me Pink Friday adventure.  It really isn't about the shopping, but the fun we both have.  Hope it is one of our traditions we never let go of.  You can watch a video of the adventures on Amelia's Youtube channel:  Pink Friday 2018




After shopping we head to the museum for their free admission day.  Not many show up for it ... as they are all out shopping!  We take advantage of the small crowds.





A very busy December is in store...skating competitions, piano recitals and dance performance.  Stay tuned.
