Christmas Tree Time

Fa la la....it's Christmas time!!  This year we had a temporary tradition of going to Lowes to pick out a Christmas tree and then coming back to the house for some yummy taco soup!  This is the same thing we did last year and I really enjoy it, but there is a Christmas tree farm in Texas with lots of fun activities that will be an even better tradition for years to come.  I think next year will be the perfect year to make a day of it and Oliver should be at the age where he will be able to enjoy some of the activities they have.  We hope to be able to recruit a big group a friends and family to tag along too. 

Back to this year though; we had a fun and quick trip to Lowes to pick out a tree.  Oliver, Gammy and I also went into the store to show Oliver all of the big blow ups they have.


All bundled up and ready to pick his tree!


Perfect

Our family 2011...

2010!!
It is so amazing to look back and see just how much our Oliver has grown!

After eating dinner daddy put up the tree and Oliver helped.



Like father like son!

Time for Christmas Pjs and lights!






And then comes decorating or playing in the box and throwing ornaments everywhere!


Piddles quickly found his favorite spot under the tree.  Oliver was looking at the tree and began to shake the tree and this is what happened to Mr. Piddles! 


Oliver putting his ornament from his 1st Christmas on the tree.





Love his sweet little hands!!!!
