Christmas is coming
We came home this afternoon to find that Christmas has arrived early for our neighbors across the street. Last year they were the new kids on the block. The house is a rental and I guess that they were getting the feel of the neighborhood. They put up a little projector projecting on their garage of Christmas scenes and while this was a little embarrassing when we had friends over (everyone commented on it) it was only one little thing and kind of humorous especially since Brad really likes projectors. We got a lot of good jokes out of it. Well this year they are kicking it up a few notches the projector has gone out and inflatables are in! That is right inflatableS! They are still a little hard to make out as they have not been filled with air yet but as we can best tell we will have some type of inflatable snow globe and a chimney with Santa not to mention that these items will have spot lights and there are lighted deer just in case that was not enough. Now I cannot chat too much because I do LOVE to hop in the car and drive around to see all the Christmas lights but I usually go to other neighborhoods for this activity. Brad and I are pretty plain and simple we do put Christmas wreaths on all the windows but no spotlights. If you miss it during the day you will not be seeing it at night either you will just have to wait until the next day. The people across the street have kids but they are much older so it will be total enjoyment for Charis. I told Brad it will almost be like having a Christmas parade constantly outside your house. She will love it and I will love it as she loves it with my child heart but I am thankful that there is not much grass left in their yard for other inflatables.
Everything is up and running now and what I thought was an inflatable snow globe is really a HUGE inflatable train with a carousel inside. Charis is going to love this!!!

This is hilarious! Charis really WILL love it. (I bet her Mom does too!) What a fun surprise. –
Surprising…because it’s so unusual…and surprising because it’s rather early. Ha.
Love you and can’t wait to hear how Charis reacts!!
Love, G-Ma
