Day 344 - December 9

It was Christmas Tree day!!

We got our tree yesterday (in 75 degree weather, while I wearing a sleeveless shirt - weird!) and got it into the house. But that was as far as we got. Part of that was a lack of time before getting ready for our party last night. Part of it was because we needed to give the tree some time standing upright so the branches would settle out. I have to say, we got a great tree again this year!

During nap time, Jason got all bajillion lights up, so that Michaela would be able to help us decorate - a highly anticipated activity - when she got up. Within seconds of coming out to the living room, she was already asking to hang up her ballerina ornament, which was a gift from Grandma and Grandpa Jeff this year.

The ballerina was the first ornament on the tree. And then we had a, uh, fun time putting up the rest of the ornaments while trying to minimize damage and make sure they made it up higher than the bottom 3 feet of the tree!

We still have to hang our tin and glass icicles, but it's up and decorated, and looks good, if I do say so myself!
