Trimming the Tree…

The Friday after Thanksgiving was not Black like most of the world.  Inside our house was filled with color… the colors of Christmas!  After a yummy breakfast together, we got out the Christmas decorations and the tree and got to work!  It is amazing how much help the kids actually are these days… they are far more constructive than they are destructive!  It was fun being together… together for the holidays!

Putting the ornaments on.  The ornaments truly show the history of our lives together – the ornament that my gave Danny when we were engaged, the ones from our first Christmas in New Holland including one with our wedding picture, the ornaments celebrating the first Christmases of our children, ones from friends and family in PA, NH, VA, FL, NY, and IA!  Our Tree is FULL of history!

Josiah LOVED this Superman ornament.  He did NOT want to put it on the tree… he wanted to play with it!  That’s Danny’s boy!

Josiah needed a little help to put the ornaments on… I helped get the top of the tree decorated!
