Oh Christmas Tree

First, this is post #200 for this year. I can't believe I've talked about my kids that much! Well...I guess I can!

We started to put up our Christmas tree on Friday and finished yesterday. When I first started getting things out I thought we were going to have issues with Abigail. She started playing with the lights when I plugged them in, but was fine once I started putting the tree up and getting the lights on it. So far she hasn't paid the tree much attention. Here are some pictures from our three day project.
Just testing the tree

Both of the kids are fascinated with the lights this year

Austin thought we should document the evening. The next two pictures are courtesy of him...

I guess he wanted to document what his feet looked like too

This picture is a little blurry, but Abigail is putting her ornament on the tree she got from Grandma Great last year

Getting into things, but at least she was happy

Austin was very into putting the ornaments on the tree this year. I think he put 3/4 of the ornaments on the tree.


And, like last year, the ornaments ended up being placed on the bottom 1/4 of the tree and in bunches

My new tree topper. I made it!!!!

The final picture

The ornaments are all where Austin placed them. I think that makes our tree unique. I love it.

Austin did a great job decorating the tree! It looks beautiful. I also make my own bows, aren't they fun to make!?! Enjoy watching Abigail and Austin play with all of the decorations as the season goes on.

Happy Holidays,
Jana and Megan
