Every year on the first weekend of December we have our annual light party (when we put over 30,000 lights on all our ceilings and walls and have our friends over to guess the amount). We decided not to have it this year for the first time since I was in college. We decided to use the time instead to put up our family Christmas tree and decorations. I remember thinking last year that Grace had a good time but I had no idea she would have an even better time this year. We told her earlier in the week that we would be doing it and she kept asking Jack to bring up the decorations so we could get started. She had the best time going through the ornaments, asking where each one came from and whose it was. She also enjoyed the hot chocolate we all drank which has become a family tradition when we decorate the tree. She was partial to two branches in the front so our tree's a little lopsided but we love it anyway.
Kate slept through most of the excitement
That poor branch...
Grace found a Santa hat in the decoration box and has been wearing it ever since.
