Hot Chocolate

As tradition goes, the Friday after Thanksgiving we all went to pick out the family Christmas tree. On the way we usually stop at Starbucks to enjoy a hot drink to take with us. This year Isabella and Margaret wanted to try one to. They have never really taken a liking to chocolate milk so they had never tried hot chocolate. We got them each a drink and they LOVED it, which is kind of dangerous since there is a Starbucks on almost every corner. Now as we drive past they beg for another. I tried to convince them that our hot chocolate at home was just as good but they are not buying it, which means that my Starbucks runs just got a bit more expensive. This is not good in a recession!!!!
We did pick out a beautiful tree which has been standing in my living room naked since Friday. We are waiting for Daddy to be home long enough to help us decorate it. He was on call all weekend and then by the time he got home last night it was too late. We are crossing our fingers for tonight!

Margaret demanded hers be in her tippy cup.
Isabella was very cautious because she knew it was hot!
