Oh Christmas Tree!

We are expecting a storm to roll in tomorrow night and bring with it wind, snow and freezing cold temperatures. Since we hadn't put up our tree yet, I figured we had better get out to the shed and get it before the weather stopped us from going outside.

Braeden brought in the tree, ornaments and home decorations. We purged at the end of last Christmas - so there wasn't as much to bring in and put up as there usually is. Kinda made it nice, but Emma of course missed all the stuff that is normally out.

There was a bulb burned out on the tree - so the lower portion wouldn't light - of course it took FOREVAH for Braeden and I to figure this out - and replace the bulb. But - live and learn!

I put the garland on and the angel - and the kids put on the ornaments. We bought new silver and blue ones this year - and only put on the kids' first christmas ornaments. Nice elegant looking tree this year.

Here is a picture that Emma took of the tree
