O' Christmas Tree con.

Our beautiful 8 ft. Douglas fir (which we think we stole for $35) has filled the air with the wonderful aroma of pine. This is a wonderful new memory to be making after years of a fake tree a real one is a treat! It stayed undecorated for a few days but in the interim Vance decided he would decorate it with a few things take a look

Yes those would be a toy dragon from the movie "How to Train a Dragon", Optimus Prime from "Transformers", a few books and various other transformers. When he was done putting them in the tree he stepped back and said "Mom, is it boo-tafull?" God I love that little man!

Eventually the tree did get decorated and I LOVE it! It is full of many bulbs and ornaments that have special meanings and memories associated with them. We have a few bulbs that are "baby's first Christmas", one that is "Our first Christmas", Ryan's "Jeff Gordon" ornament, a special Christopher Radko (sp?) ornament, An ornament that was Ryan's Uncle David's (may he rest in peace) and various bulbs and ornaments that were on my tree as a child growing up that momma passed down to me when I moved out. Including MY baby's 1st Christmas ornament. Check out our finished product.....
