Deck the Halls!

We are definitely in the Holiday Spirit around here! Saturday we decided to get our Christmas Tree. Since we now have 2 kids to tote we opted to skip the tree farm and head straight to a road side stand. We found a beautiful tree that is now standing with pride in the living room. This was the first year we let Sarah help with the "big tree," so it is loaded with ornaments from about 3 feet down. Anna watched the festivities from her bouncy chair, which she is very close to outgrowing. After most of the mess was cleaned up she resumed her position on the floor to help Sarah tie bows on some ornaments. Sarah was extremely patient with Anna... didn't totally FREAK out when Anna got too close and started reaching for things. This is a BIG step for us.

Sarah only has 2 more days of school before the holidays, so we have lots of holiday crafts and baking to do in the next few weeks to keep us busy. Maybe some of it will be blog worthy!
