Tree decorating

 

We had a fun time last night putting up the Christmas tree.  The kids thought it would be a good idea to listen to Christmas music while we were decorating the tree, so we turned on the Christmas music station on pandora.  It was a lot of fun.  I love our tree.  A lot of people do themed trees and try to make them look perfect.  Ours is all most all homemade decorations the kids have made during all the great Christmas Eve activities we do each year.  Every year we make an ornament to put on the tree.  Every homemade ornament put on the tree brings back wonderful memories.  I love the cross stitched picture of Christ behind the tree.  I did that picture years ago.  It is in a perfect place. It reminds us of what the season is all about, the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ.  I hope we all remember him and his sacrifice during this time of celebration.  Because of his love for us, we get to live with him and our Heavenly Father again.  Merry Christmas everybody!
