........and the tree is up!


On Saturday the kids were so excited to get the Christmas tree decorated. It is the most wonderful time to share this with our children. This year was even more special because both children have their own ornaments that they add to the tree. Trayjan kept asking how old he was in ornament pictures and when he made certain ornaments. Our tree has so many ornaments that have so many special meanings to them. Trayjan has been getting a Michigan Wolverine ornament from Grandma Susan every year since he was one. We also display pictures of family on our tree, so it's so fun to see the pictures from the past that are only brought out for our Christmas Tree.

The kids wore their matching pajamas they were bought two years ago to decorate....they looked so sweet matching eachother. I know there are not many more times, I can get by with them matching for anything.

It was a very special time decorating and the kids had so much fun, they just kept looking for more ornaments to add to our already very full tree.

Precious! I love the pj's, they look so cute. And your tree is beautiful. Christmas is a magical time of the year. It was always a tradition to get new pj's when I was a little girl on Christmas Eve. (for pictures on Christmas morning mom says)I am carrying that tradition on for my girls. They each get a new pair on Chrismas Eve. And since we attend midnight Mass, they wear them to Church. (they always fall asleep anyway)Traditions keep the family strong and teaches great values. Thanks for sharing.
