Traditions

It was a hard decision...do we decorate or do we not decorate? Do we decorate because it is Little E's first Christmas or do we not decorate because we will not be here for Christmas? Do we decorate because it is 3 weeks until Christmas or do we not decorate because we will have to say 'no' 1000 times?
The decision? As our tradition, the decorations went up the Friday after Thanksgiving. Little E doesn't care either way about the tree. She has crawled over to it to gently touch the branches, but we haven't had to tell her no yet!

"This is my new pointing hand. No, I am not putting a spell on the tree."

She and Daddy helped put the ornaments on together.

She did enjoy playing with and eating the "filler" ornaments! Those are the ornaments that aren't the most beautiful, definitely not the most expensive, but the ones that "fill" up your tree! Thanks mom!

What a cutie! I'm glad you put them up so Emma could experience the decor at home! Ours went up Friday, too.
