Oh Christmas tree, Oh Christmas tree

Our family is having a real tree this year. Its our first real tree as a family. I am not used to them; and Cowboy grew up cutting down their own real one--don't know how he handled our Charlie Brown artificial one all these years. I got the privilege of picking it out and I think I did a great job. I arrived home to see it tied up and held hostage in the garage. Cowboy had cut the bottom of it and was letting it drink. However, he didn't want to lean it up against anything and have it be squished; so he cowboy tied it up with three ropes!

Paige to help Gramma Shelly decorate on Sat. afternoon. The outfit of choice when I showed up to get her--T shirt and undies. A classic outfit to decorate in.

A few days later we have our tree in the living room and were decorating it. Paige loves her Disney ornaments and is ecstatically showing me Nemo. Note my helper in the back.

Our almost finished tree. Note the blur on the side of the photo--that's Paige running out of the beautiful picture of her in her pretty dress in front of the tree. Sigh. I tried all day today to get good pictures of my family and none of them worked.
