I gave the boys' teachers their gifts today, so now I can show them to you.
Aren't they too stinkin' cute for words? They came from one of my favorite amigurumi designers on etsy. She also designed the bear in the balloon and the robot I made earlier in the summer. They were ornaments and I took the photo before I put the yarn in their heads (aw) to finish them off. The kids wanted some too, so I made Niels another snowman.
Stefan got a Christmas tree.
I didn't have the right sized eyes left, so we got those little jingle bells to make ornaments instead. Stefan was excited about it. As you can probably tell, we decorated our tree today. Niels insisted that the tree and snowman should be next to each other. Our little fake tree isn't very big but it was decorated with enthusiasm.
Erik used the extra big tree lights to decorate the rest of the room a bit.
I guess filling that top shelf will have to wait until after Christmas is over. I don't mind, though. I have lots of other things to do in the meanwhile!

The snowmen are adorable!!
And all the van Roodes are ready for the holidays. Santa should have no problem finding this house.
The house looks great! I can't wait to see it 🙂
