Getting Ready for Christmas By: Sis Age: 7

We have gotten ready for Christmas!
It has been fun!
Three stockings are hung up!
My one is at the top!
Buddy's stocking is below mine at the left!
Mama's Baby's stocking is below mine on the right!
We have a big window so we put our Christmas tree right in front of the window!
And we put Mom's dolls up on the window sill!
I even have one of the doll's as my own!
We got out to a shop that is called Annalee Dolls!
We go out with my Grandpa!
Another decoration we put up is outside in front of our house hanging in the front of our house!
We also made a candy wreath!
We bought peppermints from the store and we also bought some different kinds of candy!
And we bent a hanger into the shape of a circle!
And then we bought string and some red ribbon.
Then we took some scissors.
And we took some of the string about 4 inches wide and then we took a piece of candy and we tied the string around it two times and then we made sure we pulled it tight.
And then we tied it around the hanger two times.
And we repeated this again and again and then we finally at the end took the wreath and cut of the hanger and we used wire cutters to do that.
Then we took the ribbon and used only a little bit of the ribbon and then we tied it just like you would a shoe.
And we are happy that we made our very first candy wreath!
