Putting Up the Christmas Tree

Last weekend we went out an bought our tree and then started decorating it. Annette was really into decorating this year, much more so than years past. Carolyn tried but she needed a little bit of help. We did a really good job decorating though, so much that we had to go decorate the little tree in the playroom. This is such an awesome time of the year.

Here I come with the tree.

Carolyn helped me tighten the tree stand.

Then attacked.

The girls amused themselves while I put the lights on.

Then it was time to decorate the tree.

But the girls liked putting ornaments in the candle holder better.


Mommy helped them with that part.

Carolyn took some time out of decorating the house to decorate the front of her shirt with drool.


Then she got back to work.

Good job little girl.

Yay for ornaments!!!

Then Mommy and Annette could finish up the tree.


Aww the Mickey and Minnie First Christmas Together Ornament.


A couple of sweethearts.

Then the girls found the Christmas tree glasses.

Carolyn's turn.

I don't know what is going on here, but she sure is cute.

The girls really like the Singing Snowmen and Stacking Santas

Time to decorate the little tree.

Annette wanted to put this ornament on first.

There it goes.

Carolyn wants to decorate too.

It's getting there.

She's getting good at this.

Carolyn is trying too.

Get the stocking on Carolyn.

Keep trying.

Then Annette put on the topper.

Then it was time to open up the new ornaments from Mema and Pepa.

Annette hung hers up really high.

There it is. What a pretty tree.
