Christmas Decorating

The Saturday after Thanksgiving we went out and got our Christmas tree. After spending nearly an hour trying to decide where to put the tree and how to arrange the furniture we finally decided on something that would be okay. By then it was getting pretty late so Stephen put the lights on and then we called it a night. We finished decorating the tree on Monday for family home evening. Emerson was really excited to help participate. He did pretty good at the beginning but after a while he just wanted to run around with the ornaments he was supposed to be putting on the tree--one of which broke. Oh well. Emerson really likes the tree. Before it was decorated he liked touching the needles and branches. Now that it's decorated he points to all the ornaments and makes "ow" and "ah" noises. I love the smell that is currently saturating our living room. Once we put the lights up outside it'll really start to feel like Christmas.
