We usually put up our Christmas tree the weekend after Thanksgiving but since we weren't home that weekend, we had to wait another weekend. Marc kept nagging us to put up our decorations because "everyone else has theirs up". ;-) I told him that "everyone else didn't just get back from vacation". So we finally out Marc out of his misery and put the tree up. Both kids helped us spread the branches out on each branch of the tree and put them on the tree pole. Marc id a great job, as usual, but Samantha wasn't so sure about the feel of the needles at first, but then got used to them.
Daddy and I did the lights while the kids had nap/quiet time. After Marc came upstairs he helped Daddy put the garland on the tree....such a big boy and a big helper!
Love the fact the both kids are old enough to do at least a little bit of the decorating. This year we had the kids hang their own stockings on our stocking holder.
Every year for the last couple of years we have let Marc put the topper on the tree.
It was SO fun watching the kids decorate the tree. Daddy and I didn't do much, just the breakable ones, while the kids put the rest of the ornaments on. After wards I had to go back through and rearrange a few, but for the most part, they did great!
It is always so fun to watch the kids and their excitement over the Christmas decorations! :-)
