Decorating the Tree








On Sunday, we put the Christmas tree up. We put on some music and got started. Tatum helped me by handed me the limbs to put on. (yes, it's artificial) Dennis and I put up the lights and the garland. Colin was playing in the living room and didn't seem too impressed. Tatum was very curious as to what we were doing. She has never seen a Christmas tree before!
Both Colin and Tatum loved putting the ornaments on the tree! It was so cute. They would run over to Dennis to grab an ornament and then come over to me at the tree. We took turns picking up the kids to reach the higher branches. It was the most fun we have ever had putting up the tree.

Next week, we are going to our friends' house to make cookies for Santa. I can't wait for that. We are also going to LaSalette Shrine. They have a wonderful Christmas display with lots of lights. The rosary is lit up around the pond and the Creche is life sized. Colin loves going every year and hopefully, Tatum will too.
