Putting up the Christmas tree

Now that Thanksgiving is over, bring on Christmas! The morning before we left to go to Belton for Thanksgiving Mitch moved our furniture and cleaned our downstairs carpets. When we got home that night they looked great! We decided it was a good time for him to bring up the tree before the furniture was back in the way. Mitch put up the tree and Payton helped me fluff up the branches. She loved seeing the lights twinkle and sparkle. After she was in bed my parents stopped by and my Dad helped Mitch put the furniture back to it's home. The next morning we decorated the tree and Mitch brought up the rest of the Christmas decorations. Along with Payton's help the house looks very nice. She loved un-wrapping all the ornaments the best. Hard to believe how different Christmas will be next year. I am looking forward to enjoying this wonderful month.
