This is what it looked like when I started decorating the tree
This was after!!! It really start coming down!
Making snowballs :)
Faith "Now we throw them at each other" Ready set GO!"
A bit hard to get up there the first couple times.
But then I turned it into a sliding hill :)
Faith without slick snow pants attempted but it wasn't the same and too cold!
My buffet decorated with decor!
Our archway to the hall
"The Clems at Christmas"
Fun for the girls to have pretties everywhere.
After we got done with the tree. They were so happy!
They ate cookies and marshmallows with hot chocolate while we got the hooks on the ornaments then we decorated to Christmas music. After we were finished we read a Christmas book from the library. It was about a boy who helped his dad sell Christmas trees at the Rockefeller Center and how they were blessed that next Christmas day with a new home from the construction crew from the Rockefeller Center. A very good book. I think the girls had a great night and enjoyed it alot!
Your house looks very festive. I remember when I was your age and I LOVED decorating for Christmas because Scott and Cherie enjoyed it so much. Your girls will remember this. They will remember how it looked, what they did, the smells, the tastes and they will carry that to their own children. The best gifts are the gifts of time and making treasured memories. They won't remember the gifts under the tree, they will remember the traditions you've started and when they are old like me, they will smile and get that heart-warming Christmasy feeling from just remembering!
