It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

Umma spent Thanksgiving in Florida, visiting Uncle Patrick, Auntie Lissa and Calvin.  Those she left behind thought it would be a nice treat to put up her Christmas tree while she was gone.  
  Uncle RJ, Auntie Kimmie and Lorelli met us and we spent a fun afternoon, putting together Christmas.
 
The grown ups put up the tree, Uncle RJ strung up the outside lights, and the kiddos decorated the tree.
TAAAAA-DAAAAA!
 
Imagine our surprise when we arrived home and Dad had put up OUR Christmas tree.
We've NEVER put up the tree before Eric's birthday (12/3) so this was a major treat.
We spent the rest of Sunday afternoon, bringing Christmas to our home.
 
Why it is there is always one part of the tree that won't light up?
While Daddy toiled away in misery, Alexander started hanging up ornaments.
Eventually, Daddy won the battle and our two heros placed Minnie at the top of the tree.
Merry Christmas!
