It's Feeling Festive Around Here

We ended up getting an artificial tree this year. I prefer real, but the thoughts of carting out a real tree alone were not too appealing. And if tradition holds up, I will eventually need 2 trees like mom!!! I am okay with that. We set it up and were concerned about Reese. Well, as you can see she thinks the tree skirt is a big comfy bed and the whole tree is great to lay under. Friday night we headed out to Uno's for dinner with some friends Alisha, Blake and Cole. Their
Dad is off on deployment and mom needed to do some Santa shopping. We brought the boys back to our house for a while. Reese had her first experience with little ones and did pretty well. She just gets so excited. Blake and Cole did a great job decorating the tree. Many branches had 5 ornaments on them. And the highlight of decorating was the stepstool. We only had one casuality with the ornaments. We had a great night and hopefully Santa got some great shopping done. When all was said and done and the house was quiet, Miss Reese retired to the back of the tree for some shut eye. Merry Christmas!
