Decorating the Christmas Tree


The kids (and Michael) could not wait to decorate the Christmas tree. The kids did not take their eyes off of the tree as Michael put on the lights. They were completely in mesmerized.




Grace remember from the last couple years that it was her job to put the angel on the top of the tree. She did not stop asking the entire time Michael was putting on the lights.


Here is a picture of the Christmas tree completely decorated. Sadly we have the tree surrounded by a barricade of couches and boxes for fear that David Michael would pull the tree over on top of himself.  I know atleast for the next probably three years our tree will have to be barricaded, but that is ok because the kids really love looking at all the lights and ornaments.
