"O Christmas Tree.."

We went over to Lagoner Farms in Williamson last week to buy our Christmas tree. David and I looked over the trees and decided to get a littler one this year. We saw this tree and laughed a little about it's size, but ended up feeling kinda' bad for it (well, it was more me than David). So, we took it home and started decorating it and became a beautiful little tree. It might be a small tree, but it's our tree!

Decorating the tree again...

Well, the other day I finally got out the boys' Christmas tree ornaments and they loved decorating their tree. Daddy helped out too...well, I don't know if "help" is the right word!!! He did buy some new ornaments for them to put on their tree at the hardware store...what a dad!

Brothers...

I snapped this picture before leaving for church one Sunday morning...I wanted to get a picture of David in his first suit!! Joey looks handsome too, of course!!

Decorating the tree...

David and Joey have a Christmas tree in their bedroom this year. I thought it would be fun for them to decorate it themselves. They have colored lights on it so far. I have to get the decorations out yet!

"Where 'toe' go, Mommy?"

(Editor's Note: This entry was recorded a few weeks after the actual events took place...oops!)
Yesterday, we had a few flurries and it covered our lawn just enough so that you could see a white covering. This morning after breakfast, I was washing Joey up and he looked out the window and said, "Where 'toe' go Mommy?" It took me a few seconds to figure out what he was asking me. Finally, it clicked - "Where the snow go, Mommy?" Joey wanted to know what happened to that white stuff that was there yesterday.

Curious George...

...is what David picked out for his 4th birthday! He loves that little monkey. We had David's party at Aunt Jackie's house (it's bigger!) Everyone came out to wish him a Happy Birthday. Here are some pictures from the party...
