The kids were so excited to decorate the Christmas tree this year. Not only were we back in our house (YAY!!!), but we got a new Christmas tree (I know, I know, we are not going Green!) because the old one electrocuted me (big ouch!). I was lucky that ACE Hardware had one that I liked (they only had the display left) and come to find out, it was something like 30% or so off!!). So, as I'm trying to get the decorations out of the boxes, the kids are hovering over me, picking decorations out of my hands, out of the boxes, constantly asking me, "Mom, can I put this one up? Mom, can I have this one? Mom, can you please hurry up and give me one of those hook thingys?" It was a good thing we had Christmas music on to keep me calm. Plus, they had been waiting since the day we moved in to put the tree up, how could I ruin their night of fun by yelling at them??
Kassidy really got into the swing of decorating the tree...the only problem was, I didn't see her get on the bar stool to put her decoration up. I about died! I hurried and took this shot and the next one and swept her right off the bar stool. Thank goodness there weren't any accidents that night (my kids are quite clumsy, just like their mama!).
Done decorating!
Love how all the decorations were on the right side of the tree and from the middle of the tree down? The last picture is a close up of their work.
