O Christmas Tree

Please excuse the bad hair day
Awww
The mess

    I hesitated to post these pictures because they just didn't turn out very well but I thought oh what the heck.  We did get a picture of all of us but it was too dark and you can barely see us. The decorating  seemed to be more time consuming and exhausting this year. The 3 year old couldn't possibly have anything to do with that but we did get to decorate outside as we haven't really in the past so it is finally done and our home is aglow. I  put presents under the tree and Bella is doing remarkably well about not opening them. We put Mike's monorail around the tree as well which she cannot seem to leave alone but hey ,i ts distracts from the gifts so be it. We are mostly done with our shopping being as we are only getting for the kid and the parents but all we have left to do is cookies and Christmas dinner.  Happy holiday season everyone!
