After the girls finished up their dance class, we came home and started setting up the tree in earnest! It wasn’t long before the train was set up and running!
Not long after the train tracks were set up, we started bringing Lola’s old Holiday Village buildings up from the garage. In this picture, the floor beneath the tree is still visible; now, it’s super ma-duper filled up with buildings and snow and little figurines and such!
The kids did the whole village design. They decided where to put the buildings, Dylan put in all of the lights, Cameron made snowballs and snow drifts and everyone put down all of the little accessories (newsboy, tree lot, choir, etc). I love how it captures their imaginations!
