Santa Hayride/Decorating Xmas Tree

Hey, welcome back! I'll say...this really never goes the way that I intend. I certainly didn't think that I'd be getting my first post up on Friday.

Here we are, out in Wickford for a Santa hayride.

Morgan decided he was going to walk, but we brought the stroller anyway and he took the lead in pushing it.

Before long, he resigned to riding in the stroller. It was quite a chilly nite and the line was longer than I cared to deal with, so despite coming out to hop on a hayride, all we got was the smell of horse poo. We did see the horse drawn hayride but we only ended up walking a little and stopping to listen to a few carolers, which Morgan enjoyed thoroughly.




Here is the latest Wild Colonial shirt...one size fits all!

Now for tree decorating, Morgan was a very active participant this year. My least favorite part was when Morgan took a glass ornament and held it a little too tight such that it broke in his hand and sliced his thumb. Fortunately, it was one of those cuts where a person doesn't even realize they are cut, so I was the only one freaking out, but I got a band-aid and the blood was contained. Morgan was more amazed than anything, which was just fine by me.

Hanging 'em up

The tree might be a little bottom heavy. Perhaps next year, as Morgan grows, the ornaments will be concentrated in the middle.

Here's Morgan's first crack at a wishbone (from a Stop & Shop rotisserie chicken). Stay tuned to see how it goes!
