O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree

On Friday night we were able to begin the Christmas season. We went to Home Depot and bought the cutest little live tree we could find then went home and proceeded to decorate it. I am very adamant about having live trees. Avery was very much in the middle of the whole process. She loved being able to put the ornaments on and was very excited about the lights.

Emmabelle had such a good time just watching all the commotion.
The girls getting ready for the fun to begin.Avery learning how to put ornaments on the tree.
It didn't take her long to become a pro.

This is what Emmabelle found to do while we were busy decorating the tree. It is hard to tell, but it is wrapped around her from head to toe. At one point it was around her little neck. She had a blast.

My husband is so nice and has let it become my tradition to top the tree. It was his idea to use a Santa hat though. This is the second year we have used it and we really like it.

The girls and I with the finished product.
