It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas







Avery and I put up our Christmas tree today, and sticking with tradition, my family's favorite Christmas tunes were playing in the background; Mariah Carey, the Beach Boys, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Herb Alpert. It was so special to have Avery help decorate the tree, especially putting on her "baby's first christmas" ornament. Now the trick will be keeping her from taking all of the ornaments off of the tree. She thinks all of the red ornaments are "apples." So far she hasn't tried to eat any of them, but . . . . you never know.

Love the tree! It looks great! I've got to get some garland for our tree after Christmas since I'm too cheap to buy it now..and I need to make a tree skirt...also too cheap to buy one :)

Yeah . . . I got the bead garland at a garage sale for $2 a long time ago. I couldn't find my tree skirt, so I used scrap fabric I had and just draped it around the bottom.
