So for our first Christmas in our new house, we busted out a new tree and new ornaments. Actually the ornaments were old, the teal blue snowflakes were all used as decor for our December wedding 7 years ago. So it was so nice to finally have them on the tree. And the girls loved them. They thought it was a Frozen tree, and if I wasn't over that movie, I probably would have bought some Anna, Elsa and Olaf ornaments. But I was ready to "Let it Go" so we stuck with our tree just the way it was!
I had a hard time with the mantle this year. It got done eventually with a little help from Gigi, but next year it's getting done first. Our summer picture from Busch Stadium sticks out like a sore thumb in these photos. But regardless, trimming the tree was fun. Hattie is finally at an age where she was excited about it. In the days that followed she kept rearranging the ornaments. Seeing Christmas through the eyes of your children is the ultimate gift. It's a shame it only comes once a year. Can't wait for all the Christmas celebrations to begin!
