I am ecstatic! We decorated for Christmas this past weekend. We put our tree up, which Ainsley absolutely loved doing. And the bottom foot of the tree is very much ornament heavy and it makes me happy. Parker kept pulling the stockings down and trying to put them on his feet. And trying to throw the round ornaments.
Philip and my brother hung our Christmas lights this year (what would we do without Bubby). 7 hours later, we had a lighted house just in time for dusk:)
And we also had a sore, semi- injured husband.
Our backyard connects with like 5 other back yards making a large open area around back. One of our neighbors decorated one of their trees in their back yard with lights, and my kids love looking at from the windows. So Philip decided he would let the kids pick out one inflatable to put up in the back. We took them to Lowe’s and Ainsley immediately wanted Mary and baby jesus ( i mean how do you argue with that?). It was the last one and the nice man climbed up and pulled it down from the display. We set it up and the kids are in love with it!
We (read: Philip) also put up lights around our back porch. Not just for Christmas though I’m leaving these babies up year round!
It isn’t even December 1 yet, and i only have a few gifts left to buy, am mailing out our cards tomorrow, and am ready to just enjoy the month ahead!
