Here are several pictures of Jaina and Reilly playing with their favorite friend: Chad, and some of their favorite toys: the balls. They had a blast and Reilly cried when he left. (that's not unusual)
Jeremy has been extremely busy lately. The week before Thanksgiving, there were 4 days in a row when he wasn't really home more than like 15-20 minutes between 7 am and 10 pm every day. The kids had really been missing their daddy, and were glad to spend some time with him all of this last week. They love playing with him and having him around. (So does their mommy...) 
We decided we were ready for a "traditionally-colored" Christmas tree after enjoying our white one the last several years. We found a good deal on a really pretty tree and couldn't help but put it up a few days before Thanksgiving. We didn't put any decorations on it (other than lights) until after Thanksgiving, but the kids were so excited. Every morning when they would come downstairs and see the lights, they would say "It's Christmas! Merry Christmas!" It took a few days of explaining that it's not quite Christmas before it sank in. I'm still not sure what they remember/know about Christmas, but they're excited...

Sweet pictures. Must be touch having Jeremy away so much! But fun to be getting Christmas stuff out! Our kids are pretty stoked, too.
Oh, pretty tree. That stinks having the hubby away so much. How do you do it? I NEED that break at the end of the day! Yeah, I think kids catch onto Christmas real fast!
