Decorating our Tree!







We had so much fun decorating our tree even though it took us a couple of nights to finish. The night that we had planned to do it we got our christmas lights out and 3 of the strands didn't work. So we couldn't do it that night. Eric went and got more lights the next day and guess what? 2 out of the 3 strands that we bought didn't work either. Needless to say at this point I was pretty mad! Finally the third time we tried it worked! We had polar express playing and we drank some hot chocolate and had a great time! Our tree looks awesome and I love all of my ornaments. Every year my mom gets us an Old World ornament. Those are my favorite ornaments in the world. I also collect ornaments. I try to get an ornament each year for the boys reflecting what they are into or like that year. This year I am still on the hunt for a guitar for Henry and a drumset ornamet for Walker. Or either some type of animal for Henry. My most favorite ornaments are of course the one's that Walker has made me! They are precious. I love our christmas tree every year because it tells a story! I know who gave me each ornament, or what the memory is behind each one! We have gotten through so far this year without one breaking. The boys loved pulling the ornament out of the box and telling us what it was and they loved hearing the story behind each one. I wish I could keep up the tree year round because we love it that much! Sorry I rambled so long!
