Last night we got our tree up and decorated. I was pretty surprised by how good Carter was about the whole thing. I thought for sure he'd be ripping the ornaments off the tree every chance he got! When we first put the tree up he was all about touching and fluffing it like Mama, but once I put the lights on and turned them on he was very cautious and saying "pretty pretty". Then came the ornaments....the first 15 minutes was pretty crazy, but soon enough he learned they were not toys. Now he just walks around the tree and just stares at it with a big smile on his face. Deep down I know that I'll walk into the living room one of these days and he'll have a whole line up of ornaments on the floor, but for now...he's doing good!
The finished product...I decided not to put beads or garland on it this year, but now I'm re-thinking that...looks kind of blah. And if you couldn't tell from the picture...I have a slight obsession with snowmen.
Carter held onto his Elmo ornament for dear life, didn't want to give it up to the tree!
No fire place at our house...so this will have to do! :)
This morning after breakfast Ave and I busted out the village. Since I got a new computer and now use my antique desk that my Dad refinished for me for that I had no where to go with it this year. So out came a card table. I didn't have enough room for all of my village though : ( But I think it looks very pretty.
