Deck The Halls

Friday with Friends

On Friday we celebrated Christmas with friends by going out for Japanese noodles! O and Baby K had the chance to pose near some Christmas tree's and we (finally) had the chance to see Shanghai by night. The lights in this city make it feel like Christmas every day!

"Cutting down" our tree!

Cutting down our tree in Shanghai, involves opening a box of numbered branches! Dabby is so distraught at the fact that our Christmas tree is a make-your-own, he insisted we burn pine oil to give O some more of the authentic experience that she is missing!

Our favourite decoration

O emptied the boxes of ornaments and made herself a vehicle.

"Oh No! Broken!"

Then she quickly learned that broken candy canes means "treat time!" and then took it upon herself to fix them all up so they would be edible. We found her breaking each one and putting them in her treat pile (which later became Santa's treat pile!)

And so the holiday begins!
