O Christmas tree...

On the hunt for the perfect tree...which took longer than usual this year, not sure why, there were tons of really nice trees, I was just being indecisive, {I have that problem from time to time!}

The kids in front of our tree.

Thankful for the boys, they now do all of the dirty work!

We brought the tree in and decorated it while Lucy was sleeping, when she woke up and came downstairs she looked at the tree and said "hey!"  Like, what in the world is that?  We all had a good laugh at that.

Lights on the house, tree and village up...

and yes, even a few gifts under the tree, thanks to a crazy "Black Friday" I mean all night Thursday into the morning on Friday shopping adventure.  Oh the things we do to save a buck!  Actually, it was a good time spent with friends, and very productive too.

Our goal for this week is to finish emptying out the pole barn so we can get rid of the lovely dumpster turned lawn ornament in front of the house!
