Christmas Tree

We put up our Christmas tree tonight. Brenna has been harassing me for probably a month about the tree. So she was extremely excited when I said we were going to do it tonight. Brenna loved putting all of our "SPECIAL" ornaments on the tree. The special ones are the ones they have made or their hallmark ones that we buy each year.

Here are some of the pictures. They're not the best because I'm using Julie's old camera (and it's old...lol). Mine decided to quit working at Halloween. (Luckily, I'm getting a new one for Christmas!) Also, there's only a couple because my computer wouldn't upload must of them.

The kiddos together. Very lucky I even got this picture. Collier kept kicking and hitting Brenna every time she got in a picture.


Him and Chancey are like best buds!


Yea...she has a dress on. No one tells Brenna she can't wear a dress, even in the dead of winter.


Their 2010 hallmark ornaments! Bubby kept carrying his around and didn't want to put it on the tree. Finally he set it down, and I grabbed it, and hung it up.



We've also been trying to do a Christmas activity each day.

Day 1: We wrote a letter to Santa.
Day 2: We decorated the windows with Christmas decorations.
Day 3: We went to Disney on Ice. Technically, its not a Christmas activity, but DOI always comes a couple weeks before Christmas, so for our family it has kind of become a little Christmas/Winter tradition.
Day 4: We made Rudolph pictures with or feet cutouts and hand prints. I'll have to take a picture of them.
Day 5: We made chocolate covered pretzels and put up the Christmas tree.

Activities for the upcoming week involve:

1. Coloring Christmas pictures
2. Watching Christmas movies
3. Making ornaments
4. Make a Christmas tree picture
5. Drive around and look at Christmas lights.

We probably won't do something every single day, unfortunately there isn't always enough time, but I'm definitely trying to incorporate Christmas as much as possible.
