Decorating The Tree

The tree is up! We put our tree up and decorated the house last weekend! It was not as relaxing as I imagined in my head... music playing... kids happy! It was...chaotic! We lost a lot of good ornaments that night and many awaiting reconstruction! We woke up the next morning and our fake tree was leaning to the side. Time for a new tree! We had to find a tree, take all of the lights and ornaments off, and put them all back on! Totally worth it because it looks so much better. Now if we could only stop Hayden from destroying it which is a constant battle! The girls have gotten a kick out of playing with all of the toys that make noise and light up! Taylor is so excited about Santa coming and I am really excited that I can remind her that he is always watching. We have not actually gone to sit on his lap yet but I am going to go ahead and guess that it is not happening without screaming and tears! Brady and I are also realizing that getting both kids together in a photo and looking at the camera at the same time is probably not a reality either.... maybe a solo Elway card :) We'll see what we can do!
