Christmas Time has began....


We managed to find the time Saturday since everyone was feeling better to atleast get the tree up and decorated. We also have a few of our favorite Christmas knick knacks out and the stockings up too.... It must be close to Christmas. The kids are uber excited and the talk of the festivities has begun.

The Bare Tree (except for lights)


The pile of Ornaments awaiting their special placement

Finished Product
(Up on the table in the corner, away from little hands and feet, but perfectly placed for viewing pleasure)




Stay tuned for a bunch more pics over the next few weeks. We always try to do one BIG present for each of the kids and then a few little things every year. This year the family decided that the kids are in need of a room makeover.... So stay tuned. I know we are suposed to wait til Christmas to tell them, but this one couldnt wait. There will still be the usual suprises under the tree, But ..... the kids are helping to mastermind a mural for one wall in their rooms (hand painted by yours truly of course) and helping to pick out new beds, dressers and desks as well as the color schemes. Time to get Big Kid furniture... Its long over due. They are excited at the prospect of new Big Kid Rooms. This should be FUN!!
