Oh Christmas Tree!

We have a new Christmas tree this year. We didn't plan to get one. Nope, not on the list at all. We had everything set & ready to go with the decorating of the old tree. Terence put the tree together & guess what? About 1/3 of the lights didn't work. And everybody knows, you can NOT have a funkily (yes, it IS a word) lit Christmas tree. So we decided a new tree was now on the list. We also decided to get one that was NOT pre-lit so we wouldn't run into the same problems. We ended up with a much larger tree (taller & wider) but much more to my liking. We also bought new lights ... energy efficient something or others. Groovy.

The kids had a blast decorating it, as usual.
I absolutely love, Love, LOVE this picture!
It truly shows the tree being decorated
from top (Callie) to bottom (Calob)!!!

Lovely big tree! Lucky Callie is a ballerina, not just anyone could pull off that pose!

I like the new tree ~ it is very full!

We thought we had a string of lights out on our tree this year too but they magically re-lit themselves after awhile!

It looks like Callie will fall over at any minute!

That is a really pretty tree, and the picture of Callie & Calob decorating it from top to bottom is so cool!
