The Christmas bug has officially hit me – last night I want to jump from the roof tops singing Joy To The World – I settled for putting up the tree (by myself, because dh still didn’t want to put it up at all, but when he came home and saw it up and decorated he was thrilled and fine with it) and making our very first gingerbread house.
We sang a couple Christmas carols off key, forgetting several lyrics, giggling when MM attempted to sing along but mostly babbled. I think my favorite was Oh Christmas Tree, which goes a little something like this…
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree
Or something. We also made several attempts to take pictures of the tree, of MM and the tree, cool close ups, and mostly just trying to figure out how to take clear crisp pictures of the tree in the dark with the lights flashing. Mostly I got either no lights flashing pictures that look like it’s broad day light OR blurry images of lights flashing that looks sort of like a Christmas Tree if you tilt your head and squint. I really should take a class or something. Anyway, here are some pictures of our festive family fun:
Merry Pictures To All and To All A Good Night…
or…
The End.

Aw, so sweet! I love the tree and your little helper.
I am apologize I don’t stop by more often. I finally linked you to our blog roll so that I could find you. I know you leave an awful lot of comments but I can never reply back or find your site as there isn’t any links or email addy.
Have a great holiday season!
