Christmas is my favorite time of the year. The time we get to spend with family, remembering Christ, the friendliness of strangers, the hot chocolate, the Christmas trees and decorations, all of the neighborhood lights, and yes, even the snow (I never thought I would be saying that!). The Sunday after Thanksgiving we decided to put up our Christmas tree- this is the first Christmas that we have an artificial tree. :( I love the experience of going and chopping down a Christmas tree like we did last year, but since James is now here, we thought it would be safer if we stuck to an artificial tree instead.
We started putting it together pretty late at night, and James was fascinated by what we were doing- here he is watching dad put the tree together:
The tree is almost done…
The finished tree…
Now its time for lights! If you look closely you can see the Christmas lights :)
In case you didn’t notice, while Matt was putting up the lights, James decided to spit up all over himself so we had to change his outfit :)
While we were putting up the ornaments, James fell asleep so we didn’t take anymore pictures with him and the tree. But here is the finished product along with a few other Christmas decorations. I wish I could buy/make more decorations, but we have to be frugal. Oh some day!
