this picture is what my heart looks like |
Listen, I, like you, have noticed the stores putting out their tinsel and lights before Halloween. I have watched as Black Friday shopping starts earlier and earlier each year. I have seen the advertisements for Christmas retail employment in September. But maybe unlike you, I'm not so apt to roll my eyes or groan. Why? Because I LOVE Christmas! And yes, I love Thanksgiving, too. And I happen to think that having Christmas cheer for a couple of extra weeks is lovely, magical, and maybe helps me be even more thankful :) This is the earliest I have ever decorated, but I thought, why force myself to hold off if I want to deck the halls right now??? So here are some cheer-filled pictures, both Christmas and non ;)

riding the train at the mall. Olivia loves it and is SO cute. the train plays songs and after each one stops she claps and says "yay! more?" |
|
baby enjoyed the train, too |

Olivia's own tree this year! |

she thought it was great fun to put the ornaments on, then take them off, and repeat |

I love this! We are both saying "cheese!" |

Clarence enjoys Christmas cheer, too |
|
she's not even looking at anything on the Kindle (maybe Facebook?), but this is just too hilarious. |
|
"fluffing" the branches. The not very fun part of decorating. But we managed to plaster on smiles anyway ;) |
