Decorating the Christmas Tree

So, I'm catching up slowly, but surely! After Thanksgiving we took out or Christmas decorations and our Christmas tree to decorate for Family Home Evening. We talked about Baby Jesus and we put the ornaments on the tree. I decided to not worry about what the finished tree looked like and let the kids completely decorate the bottom of it, so if you come to my house, don't look too closely at the tree!

Gordon LOVED decorating the tree. Often the ornaments would fall off after he put them on, but he never got frustrated and just tried again until the ornament would stay on!

Eddie got to put the star on the tree this year. Next year is Gordon's turn and Celeste is so upset that she has to wait for two years to have a turn again, but she'll get over it!

Our finished tree. It doesn't have the tree skirt on in this picture, and the ornaments are perfect, but the kids LOVED every minute of it and we are ready for the season!
