It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas! At least in our little corner of the house. I put the Christmas tree up the Monday after Thanksgiving and tonight the girls decorated it. That was after Mom fell UP the stairs trying to get the big box of ornaments up to the living room. Fortunately I didn't break anything and only took a little skin off my arm on the wall!
My helpers hung all the ornaments and they laughed a little over some ornaments that they had made over the years. I had to give the oldest two the "As long as you are living in MY house you will follow MY rules speech to get them to wear a Santa hat and pose in front of the tree for me. If you look close you will see a little look of unhappy with Mom glaze in their eyes!
It always makes me think of my Mom when we put up the tree as she made me so many ornaments in her last few years that I absolutely LOVE. I miss you Mom! I am sure that she is watching from above and is enjoying our Christmas too.
And our Christmas season would not be complete without Dasher here! Our elf arrived Friday night and right in our undecorated tree. Maybe he was trying to tell us something?!
Happy Holidays!!
