O Christmas Tree

Yesterday afternoon Bob picked Bobby up from school and got to stay home for about an hour so that we could decorate the tree as a family!!! We got the tree last Thursday, so it's been sitting in the house undecorated for days! So while Amaryllis was napping I got the decorations out of the attic and put the lights on before the boys got home, that way we could start when thy got here. Bobby was so funny when he walked in the door!! He just loves Christmas decorations and was so happy that the tree had lights and the tree skirt was on!!! Bobby dove right into the box, without asking, to start decorating!!! It was so funny to see him pull out ornaments, asking if that particular one was his and so on. And as usual, he picked ONE spot of the tree and hung a bunch of ornaments right there. After telling him to try and hang them other places, he did!

Amaryllis was too much too! She wanted all the ornaments herself, of course. We had to watch to make sure that she didn't try eating the hooks. She did get to hang one or two on with the help of Daddy, but she also wanted to take them off again!! The bottom of our tree looks bare, Daddy's attempt to try and keep Amaryllis away!! We'll see if it works. She's been over to see the tree a few times, but we'll have to keep our eyes on her for sure!

After all was done, our tree is wonderful! Just perfect for this family!
