One of my favorite holiday traditions is picking out a Christmas tree and decorating it. I love the smell of fresh pine, I love the way the lights look with the silver garland, and I love reminiscing over the ornaments as we put them on the tree (I have several ornaments from my childhood and Bobby & I have bought a new ornament every year.) It's even more special now that we have Hannah and Samuel. They've got their own ornaments and they loved decorating the tree this year.

We bought our tree last Wednesday and had a 'Tree Decorating Party' on Saturday. I cooked some delicious food (if I do say so myself!) and we invited our family and neighbors. It was such fun!! I really enjoyed spending time with our families - just sitting around eating and talking. What could be better?
My sister paid for Hannah & Samuel to have their pictures taken with Santa. Hannah was excited and actually talked to him but Samuel started crying the minute we put him on Santa's lap. Don't really blame him.

I have the most beautiful family ever!!
It was so windy the day we bought our tree! Our tree was one of four that was still standing.
Not only was it windy but it was also freezing cold!
This is the picture we took of the kids for our Christmas card.
Hannah & I relax after our party Saturday. Hannah looks like some 80's Rocker with her sequined head-band around her forehead.
Our beautiful tree!
