So every year we tend to get some crap for decorating for Christmas so early,.... like before Thanksgiving. I would like to assure all those that are offended by our "early decorating" that we in no way "skip" Thanksgiving! We love Thanksgiving! We also, however, love Christmas. In order to enjoy the ascetics of it to the fullest, we have made it a family tradition to decorate on (or as close as possible to) November 1st. If you read my last post you will be filled in on why this year is the latest we have decorated, I think ever. But by Thursday we could wait no longer! Our Christmas spirit must shine forth!
We put on our traditional decoratiing movie (Christmas Vacation!) poured up a tall glass of holiday cheer and hopped to it!
The kids were REALLY excited to help:)
They aren't that kind of stockings, buddy:)
Magnus enjoyed his first year of Christmas decorating!
They sure were excited (and proud) of their little "Nani Christmas trees"!
My mom made these adorable little "customized" trees for the kids last year. Mina's has a princess theme (how fitting) and Max's is cars (of course). They LOVE them, and couldn't wait to put them in their rooms and plug them in!

Christmas decorating through Max's eyes:)
Great job, guys!
Hope this post gets you all in the Christmas spirit!

Ahhh, love that last pic! There's the Xmas card photo I wanted! Kids actually smiling, hugging each other. Oh well - I might do the "Aidan-pushing-Lilah's-chair" pic after all!!
I've been such a bloggy slacker lately... can't believe how big Magnus is getting! Hope we can get together soon!!!
