beginning to look a lot like christmas

This past weekend, we pulled out the "Christmas dog" and other decorations to transform the yard into our own little Christmas wonderland. It may not be much- but we are slowly adding every year and I love how excited the kiddos get about it every.night. It's like the first time they've seen it all over again.

I saw these on pinterest and thought they would make fun great-grandparent gifts. The kids loved watching the Santa's take form from the bakes salt dough. 

When they were finished- they wanted to make sure they still fit their hands. I think overall- a great fit!
