Christmas in Narnia

December 6, 2011 by Aliesha

The Christmas celebration with Tad’s family over the weekend was themed “Through the Wardrobe” – aka “Christmas in Narnia”!  His parents did a great job decorating for our celebration!

“snow” fell from the ceiling, with their lovely tree illuminated in the background
a lamppost, Aslan, and some gifts from Father Christmas
a sleigh (not the White Witch’s, because it has bells!)

everyone had to walk through the wardrobe to enter Narnia!
Aslan is on the move!

We dined lavishly on a Feast of Aslan – roasted meats, wheat cakes, oaten cakes, honey, pyramids of fruit, and many more delicacies.  We of course had Turkish Delight as well (though not of the enchanted kind)!

“I’ve come at last. She has kept me out for a long time, but I have got in at last. Aslan is on the move. The Witch’s magic is weakening.” (Father Christmas, in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Ch. 10)

As Good as It Gets

December 5, 2011 by Aliesha

We celebrated Christmas with Tad’s family over the weekend, and we attempted to get a picture of Grammy with all the grandchildren! 

This one was pretty much the best one.

This one came in second.

Most of them turned out like this one!

At least we tried!
