2 days until Christmas


Well, we've pushed it to the bottom of the to-do list as long as I dared.

The tree is up and decorated! Kelly, the girls and I went left work and school early Friday to go to the tree farm and cut down our own tree. It wasn't quite as magical an experience as Kelly had imagined it. Olivia's exact words were, "I don't want to ever go there again!" haha
It was a little cold and we weren't really dressed for the weather. Plus the recent rain storms made it as much of a mud farm as a tree farm. Next year we will dress better for the occasion.

We got home and mom, dad and sara were waiting for us. After dinner we worked on decorating the tree. The girls put on almost all of the ornaments and did a fabulous job. There's a little (OK, a lot) of clustering going on, but that doesn't really bother me at all. It was a most enjoyable evening!

Oh how lovely! I SO wish I was there, it's so lonesome here. The clustering gives us the giggles. You are so great to let them do their own thing, knowing me, I would have probably evened it out when they went to bed, ha, ha.
