Decorating the Christmas Tree

This weekend, the boys and I finally got around to putting up our Christmas tree. All our other decorations went up the previous weekend, but we waited on the tree until after our dingy carpet got cleaned. Colin was definitely more enthusiastic about the idea of decorating the Christmas tree than the actual process of doing it. However, I was able to convince him to try his hand at hanging a couple ornaments. After that he was happy with just directing - choosing which ones I should hang next and indicating where they should go. Eli had a blast trying to tip over the boxes and send the ornaments flying. It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!
