Seth went to the door last night around 9:00 to hear muffled chattering and giggling on our front steps. When he opened the door he was greeted by a group of our sweet neighbors who burst into a rendition of "Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer". I missed the carol, by the time I got the door, the song had dissolved into the chattering and giggling again.
They handed me a box of homemade cookies (which I promptly ate four of, then felt sick and had to go to bed), took a look at our remodeled floors and that was about it. But I have to say, it really made my night. After being shut inside for a week with sick kids during the Holiday season, there is nothing better than having people remember you. So, if you get into the spirit of Christmas, go lavish some cheer on your neighbors, 'cause from their point of view, it feels great!

You don't see carolers that often anymore! What a nice little surprise especially when they come bearing cookies...
I'm so sorry to hear y'all were/are sick!
It was super fun!!! I was worried we were going to scare you and
Seth. You know east side and someone knocking on you door at 9pm. We actually practiced singing while walking down the street, but when we got to the door laughing took over!!
Have you seen Brian and Jesus's house they are putting up lights!!!
