A week ago we got a Christmas tree. Our first in about six years. Madelyn was thrilled. Today we finally got her to pose for our Christmas card picture.
Not a lot of decorations; we were planning to add more, but Madelyn insists on pulling them off to play, so we’re kinda bare-bones for now. One nerd point: Farm King had LED lights. I couldn’t resist. They are about three times as expensive as regular lights, but I expect them to last longer. And they give off no heat, which is good for little fingers.
Oh, and expect to see more pictures of the Bee, now that we got our camera repaired. I can’t believe how few pictures we took last month.

Avery’s great grandma sent some batting-stuffed fabric ornaments for the bottom half of the tree. Avery hung them up and moves them around each day with impunity. (Though the needles on the tree aren’t faring as well as the ornaments.)
I’m jealous of the led lights, though. Avery regularly uses one of her favorite words over by the tree now: Hot. Hot. as she grabs lights.
I loved the Christmas card! We were not so organized to send out Christmas cards this year. Have a merry Christmas with the girls and wonderful new year!
