santa pic & remodel

i forgot to include this picture from thanksgiving weekend. grama thought it would be fun to take garrett and jack to get their picture taken with santa claus. jack was on board but garrett was not. he didn't want anything to do with sitting next the the jolly fella, so the only way we escaped getting a screaming garrett & santa shot was for me to sit with him.
we are at the tail end of a month long remodel project of our second floor/master bedroom. it has been a lot of fun for garrett to watch the workers go in and out of the house, up and down the stairs, bring in all kinds of neat tools and supplies to explore, and of course make loud noises. we're looking forward to the end of the project at the end of this week and moving back into our bedroom and getting organized, and heck maybe even decorate for christmas - it's never too late! we are also expecting three very special visitors over the weekend and all three of us can't wait! today while the workers were getting ready to lay carpet garrett took a rest on one of the carpet rolls....
