I love decorating the tree...after the lights are up, of course. This year, Thanksgiving was really late and then Emily's birthday was literally 2 days later, followed by her birthday party a week later so the Christmas festivities got started a little bit later than usual. It seemed that everyone but us had their tree up before we even bought ours! But, the time finally came for the tree! During nap time on a Sunday, the big kids and I put on some Christmas music and starting decking the halls! It was lovely.
When Kari and Juliana woke up, they happily joined in on the festivities. Surprisingly, Juliana, though curious about all of the ornaments, played with them for just a little while and then left them alone for the most part. Go Juliana!

| I loved watching her fascination over all of our pretty ornaments! |
 |
| Kari did a great job finding just the right spots for her ornaments! |
 |
| And...then Juliana lost her pants...such cute cheeks! |
There was some discrepancy as to who should put up the angel. Kari insisted that it was her turn, although, in truth, it seemed to be Emily's turn. So, we let Kari do it first...
And then took it down for Emily to "officially" put it up.
....And then Kari got mad and had to do it again. {Sigh}
The funny thing about little kids decorating a tree is that certain branches seem to receive more than their fair share of ornaments...
Ah, the Holidays!
