December 7th - Stringing Popcorn

Brody with our suppliesBrody and Mommy stringing the popcorn. Mommy would hold the needle and Brody would push the popcorn on the string.Ella watching nearby...we kept her contained to avoid another episode of choking and throwing up!We decorated our little tree for our family room with the popcorn. It takes awhile to get enough for even such a little tree! Great job Brody! After we were done we enjoyed the leftovers while we watched a new movie sent by Great Grandma Burton called "Stranger in the Woods." Its pretty cute, with all the forest animals telling about the strange man made of snow that appeared in the woods one day. It was a very fun and low-key evening.
