O Christmas Tree

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree how lovely are thy branches...

We got our Christmas tree put up over the weekend. It is so easy putting up now that we have a pre-lit tree that comes in a total of 3 pieces. I don't miss the days of sorting all the branches by size and by that little color at the tip, the color that was mostly missing anyways. And Lenny certainly doesn't miss the days of putting the lights on. I always made him do that part, I hated it. Especially since most of the lights were all tangled together and just thrown in the box :) So now it takes us a total of about 15 minutes to put the tree together! We let the kids put all the ornaments on. They were mostly on the bottom of the tree and all clustered together :) I did move some around a little after the kids were done and when they weren't looking!

I love it when the house is all dark except for the glow of the Christmas tree, it's so purty :)
