The trees are up! I can't believe I almost skipped out on decorating this year especially since the kids are the perfect age to appreciate it all. They are loving the Christmas season. They hover around our mini tree and poke at the ornaments on the big tree. Julien even caused the mini tree to fall over on top of him from fussing with it too much. No harm done to either the tree or the boy.    

Still need to:

• find that box in the basement that has our Christmas stockings 
• get our Christmas playlist going
• bake (for the smell of fresh cookies in our home)
• buy candles that smell like Christmas for when there's no baking
