O Christmas Tree

Last weekend we picked out a beautiful tree and had our decorating ceremony.

Here are some horrible camera-phone pictures of picking the tree out. We had been out all day and I didn't have my camera with me, so these will have to do!

Kiddos being sweet!!

That was before they started running around like madmen, jumping in puddles from watering overflow, and playing hide and go BOO with a woman who was working there!!

Here is Luken, anticipating her coming around the tree!

And here is the tree being loaded onto our vehicle!

The next evening, after Todd singlehandedly got the tree all settled in its base, we got to decorating!

We presented Luken with his octopus ornament!
