It looks a lot like Christmas

Daddy looking for the tree in our stuffed garage.

Mom cant help because she is pregnant. :)

We started a new tradition in our home. The tree goes up the day after thanksgiving. It took most of the day which was funny. You can not get a lot done when you have a 2 1/2 year old around. Allison was very excited to decorate the tree. She loved getting all the ornaments out and then asking us to put them on the tree. I love decorating our home for Christmas it seems to make our house so much more warm and cozy. We listened to some good Christmas music, set up the manger and even read some Christmas books. This year we are going to steal a idea from our friends the Van Liew and make Jesus a cup cake for his birthday. I want Allison to know that Christmas isn't all about the gifts but its all about Jesus birth. I know this will be a great Christmas. I am looking forward to a new and better year in 2009.

It's even harder to decorate with a crawling infant who likes to eat pine needles. Ha ha, oh well.
