Decorated for Christmas ....

Like I mentioned yesterday, going to the tree farm yesterday was excellent! We had a fantastic time together as a family. It was really nice on so many levels. Here is our day in pictures.

See Seth's scratch? :( He got that while with Gramma. Pack-n-Plays can be dangerous, you know!


At the Tree Farm! Daddy and Seth searching for just the right tree. Actually it was Mama who nixed this one or that one because it didn't seem tall enough, or full enough. LOL!



Upon discovery of this tree, Seth declared, "NICE TREE!" So we made it ours! LOL!



We brought it home, set it up, and decorated all afternoon. I am so pleased with how our tree turned out! It is nice and tall and full! No gapey-spots, AND it actually had a deffinitive top for our angel. LOL~ Our last 2 trees from Lowe's, the top was either way off on the side and not in the middle... or there were 2 to choose from. And for the same price, you really couldn't beat going to a farm to pick it out! And BONUS! It'll stay fresh longer since it wasn't cut 2 weeks ago.

We use red and white lights on our Christmas tree.



And here is our house from the outside... I love our red and white theme! One of these years I AM going to get some of those lit-trees and a deer or two.....

Thanks for stopping by and looking!

That tree looks awesome! I'm so jealous that you can go to a tree farm ... here in Vegas there is nothing like that close by so we have a fake ... it looks like it would be so much fun to chop something down yourself! :)

Beautiful!! I love your house! It's so "A Christmas Story". I'm still knee-deep in decorating. Need to finish and put the boxes in the garage so we can relax and enjoy.
