Yesterday we had a great feast with great friends...but I didn't get one photo of the whole thing. Let's just say there was incredible food (and as always I ate too much), great fellowship and we ended the evening with singing (that's a tradition I would love to keep).
So because of a lack of photos I will post on what we did today....decorated for Christmas. Each year the kids get older and each year decorating gets more fun. And as the kids get older they help more and the decorating goes much faster. We dug out of storage our few boxes of decorations, put the tree up, trimmed it and put all the empty storage containers away in the span of Ansley's morning nap. So here are a few photos of the fun.
When we got Ansley up from her nap, her face lit up as she saw this sparkly, bright tree in her play space. Once we set her down she headed straight for it and tried to grab any ornament she could reach. Fortunately, we learned with Jude that putting our tree on the coffee table and keeping all ornaments on the second row of branches, lessens the times we have to say "no touch". But our determined little girl still managed to grab a couple of low ones before we could get to her.

There is something wrong with the pictures of people decorating the Christmas tree in tank tops and shorts. Got our tree up yesterday too. We wore long pants and long sleeved shirts. ;) Mom H
We haven't put ours up yet - but I am really liking the tree on the coffee table idea! I am going to have to use that one!
