Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree

Last night we decided to set up our Christmas tree. Our usual tradition is to set up the day after Thanksgiving but with a whole extra week before December this year, we decided to wait a week! I have to admit that the spirit of Christmas was somewhat lacking in my house, I had no desire to even put up the tree this year. Now that it’s up -  it’s starting to come around!
So here is our wonderful tree!
The branches are color coded so Lil’man read (by himself) the instruction and told Daddy what to do! Such a good helper!
