Oh, Christmas Tree


y
m

We started putting up our Christmas Tree on Friday, after I went shopping. I finally got my family to help me finish getting the ornaments on it on Monday for Family Home Evening. Makayla and Austin were a big help with that. Holden thinks it's fun to pull the balls until they come off the tops, breaking quite a few. I don't even want to know what Clara would do around the tree :) I love Christmas time, making my home all festive, and teaching my children the true meaning of Christmas.

yay for you guys! I hope we actually end up with a decorated tree :(

I am sorry I missed your party! I was dealing with crazy kids, Meka in full on tantrum for 2 hours. At 8 when I was cleaning up yet another mess it dawned on me that we missed it! :( I hope you can forgive me!

What fun! Tim is the one putting the decorations out this year. We are still debating what to do about the tree...we don't have little kids anymore...but our dog Bently chews everything still.

I love decortating the tree as a family, this is one tradition that I loved even as a kid. Your tree looks merry and very bright!
