O'Christmas Tree, O'Christmas Tree...

...how lovely are thy branches! We are going on a tree hunt and we are going to get a big one...

Our original plan was to use our artificial tree this year, but then Saturday morning we decided to just go for it and cut one down ourselves. The problem? Most lots were picked over, we are always on some sort of time crunch (i.e. food, snack, nap etc.) and we did not plan ahead! Opps. But it worked out. It was a gorgeous foggy morning and the girls had a blast!

Post nap, these two weren't quite sure what was going on, but they soon got into it! (And yes, I planned these shirts to wear for decorating! Gap kids. Best cotton t-shirts ever.) 

Trying to take pictures of 2 year olds decorating a tree is like chasing a mouse. Just saying...I think Scott and Heather had a little fun too :) 

We tried to take a family pic of all of us and this was the best we got! We were all singing to make the girls smile :)

And with that we are officially done with decorating...I think! I always seem to find something else to do! I will be back later this week with a recap of the rest of our holiday decor!

Over the river and through the woods....

...to Grandmother's house we go! We had a great Christmas in Fairborn this year spending time at both Grandparents house and even making and appearance at Christmas Eve church service (Savannah may have tried to eat the manager but we will leave that out! :) )

We of course took a TON of pictures but its a mix of my new lens (you can tell because they are more close up shots), the wide lens (original) and the iPhone. I am still playing around but we have some great memories to share.

Here is a fun little slideshow of the week:

Hope everyone enjoys their time off! We have a Christmas Vacation bucket list we are working through which includes sleep training, painting, new fireplace, a few movies and working out (what!).

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! I hope everyone had a happy holiday. We took our first overnight road trip with the girls and they did awesome. They actually set a sleeping record and slept until 4:45 am :) It was so nice to share the holiday with all our friends and family. Here are a few pics from the week.



Enjoy the rest of the holiday season. We are enjoying having Heather off and trying to fit in some movies and relaxing at home inbetween naps!



 

p.s. Hard to believe last year at this time we were on a plane to London! What a difference a year makes :)
