Christmas tree

Getting a tree and decorating this year was very low key. Between getting the built-ins done so that we could rearrange furniture for the tree, Christmas activities, being pregnant, everyone in the house getting sick, a weekend of rain and knowing there is a baby coming soon that we have to finish getting ready for we didn’t buy a tree until about 10 days before Christmas. In fact, the first place we went only had 2 very sad brown trees left and we worried we’d be decorating a Christmas Ficus before it was over! Luckily we found a (dead but green) and got it up. The girls had a great time going through all their old ornaments.

And see above the fireplace? The girls and I tied red and green tulle on a strand of white lights. It was a GIANT pain but cute and something different this year.




Each year the girls get to pick one ornament. I forgot to take a picture but Matney picked a Merida princess ball and HK got Jake from the Neverland Pirates show. Great choices since we went to Disney this year!
