Rosie's loved the lights...
it was Cassandra's year to put the angel on top of the tree. We have to write on the tree box who does it each year, since remembering from year to year is impossible.
Beckie had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled on Friday, she wasn't too interested in the whole tree decorating venture.
adding the ornaments to the tree....
we put the tree up last Saturday, it is always so fun to watch the excitement as the tree comes together. I love pulling out the ornaments and remembering the stories behind them, where I bought them, or who gave them to us, each has a story, (and I am often simply amazed that I can actually remember them) It's fun at night to sit in the living room with the tree lights on, such a soft, calm atmosphere. It is a tradition that the first night the tree is up the kids sleep downstairs, Anthony, Yahaira and Alonso all were excited to keep this tradition going. As mentioned in an earlier post Rose has rearranged the ornaments daily, she must be looking for the perfect layout, rolling my eyes here. The tree has toppled once, no casualties, just some reassembling required. Let's hope that is the only topple it takes. Reminded me of the cat who would knock the tree over at least once a year, long after our kids had grown out of that phase. Now we have new little ones to take up where the cat left off...a never ending circle it would appear.
