Countdown to Christmas

Check out my new button on the Sidebar! Shana over at My Three Wiseman's is doing something fun for Christmas.

I am going to get more in depth on Friday, but one thing that my kids and I have done to get ready for Christmas so far is to put up our Christmas Tree. I don't know about you but I like a LOT of lights on my Christmas tree. It takes about 2 hours to put up the tree with all of my lights and this is before the decorating can actually begin. The kids were getting really anxious towards the end. They were ready to decorate for goodness sake! They really did a nice job putting up the ornaments. It is fun to go through the ornaments each year and explain where we got each one. It is a nice walk down memory lane. Come back on Friday for all of the "putting up the tree" photos!
