Our favorite part of the Christmas Holiday is getting the tree ready. We usually go and get pick out our tree three weeks or so before Christmas... We all have to agree on the tree, so sometimes it takes a while! We get home, get the tree in the stand, pop some popcorn, heat some hot coco and start decorating..
The funny thing about our tree is that it doesn't look all put together, beautiful silver and red bulbs. We have mostly homemade items on our tree.A lot of them from when Rick and I were small. Every year the kids get a new ornament from the store to mark what their interests were that year. We have a messy, fun, memorable tree! The kids have so much fun every year pulling out their ornaments and reliving the previous years. Of course Kalvyn has the most since she is the oldest. Tate keeps thinking he will somehow catch up to her..
Christmas music going, popcorn popping, hot cocoa boiling...ahh what a great tradition!

Don't you just love Christmas time?!? Looks like you had a productive weekend.
These are my favorite trees...ones with meaning! I hope Tate is feeling better, now!
That is the way our tree is...lots of memories... and lots of hands that still change the position of the ornaments every day. Some days I look and find them all bunched together or like yesterday when I found an entire limb full of dinosaurs. Yes, the tree is now the keeper of the dinosaurs. :)
