Picking/ Decorating the Tree

Yesterday being the day after Thanksgiving was our day to start decorating for Christmas! We started out by picking out a tree- the kids were very excited about all the trees and Ryan got very emotionally invested in the tree. He even named - and got teary eyed when Don trimmed the bottom branches because he thought his dad was hurting his tree. After the tree was done we decorated the rest of the living room- even Don got in on the action of hanging up lights. It was a great day and one of my favorite family traditions.
