Anyway, Zach found this great place in Simi where you can pick out and cut down a tree. All the trees are in this alley shaped area under some powerlines. That doesn't sound delightful, but it really was. There were a ton of trees growing there, and we found a real beauty. Here are some of the pictures showing the great day we had getting ready for Christmas.

| Good ole Camry |
 |
| Zach is excited to start trimming the tree |
 |
| Caelum helping put lights on |
 |
| My camera refuses to give me a good family picture in front of the tree. I tried a million times...always blurry. |
 |
| I managed to get a decent picture, but with no family. What's the point then? |
 |
| Zach cleverly lit our canvas tree in the playroom |
 | So there you have it! I hope everyone else is as excited for Christmas as we are. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

See....I do check daily! My heart skipped a beat when I saw a post so soon - little blessings!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, that Owen is really getting tall! So adorable - and sorry he did the "man" thing and stunk up your bath! Second, Caelum is a butterball! He is way too cute. Third, love the tree - your house looks so nice and festive.
Fourth, did you ever get Caelum's stocking? Let me know because if you didn't, I probably need to track it.
Finally, MERRY CHRISTMAS Anna, Zach, Owen and Caelum!
Hi Queenie! The kids are getting so big. No sign of Caelum's stocking yet. He is such a little bear, so I think it's a perfect fit for him. I'll let you know when we get it.
