Trimming the Tree 2008

Palmer had to put up one of the more popular ornaments...SPONGEBOB!

He got way excited to see the Cars ornament I bought him last year!

Brooks took this one with one hand! I thought it turned out pretty nice.

Dada hung the most important ornament on the tree, our special nativity scene with Baby Jesus.

All finished!

We decorated the tree a bit later than the kids wanted to...we've just been so busy. And I hate that Christmas was only 4 weeks from Thanksgiving. I don't feel as into the spirit this year, and lots of others feel the same. But it's so important to share with the kids the true meaning of Christmas, and after the tree was decorated we had a story and a prayer. But no hot chocolate this year. It was 75 degrees this day!
