Trimming the Tree!!!

Since I seem to have slacked off on my blogging this week, I thought I would try and get at least one post in! Jarrett is out of town on a business trip and the kids are just getting over sicknesses, so I haven't had a lot of time to tend to my blogging. But, I have things in store to add over the next few days if I can get around to it.

Here is the yearly tree trimming party at the Largaespada's! We set up the food, turned the Christmas music up and went to changing our house over for a more festive look!

Jarrett says it just isn't right to be decorating for Christmas in 75 degree weather. So, he decided to help set the mood with a warm winter hat, gloves, shorts and a t-shirt! I love this man!

Our girls pretty much took care of the ornaments on the bottom half of our tree!

And then they both have their own little 1 foot tree to personally decorate. Check out Annalise's skill of design with her tongue sticking out of her mouth!

Annalise loves to have Daddy hold her up each year to put the tree topper on! I'm thinking Allison might fight her for her position in years to come!
And when the tree is done, it's a Largaespada tradition to lay under the tree and look up at the hundreds of lights! So pretty! And Annalise also helped me with fixing the room up just right with all the other decorations. I used to be so picky about where things go. It's just not about that anymore! Annalise did a great job!

Our finished project! I just wish it could look like this year round! Oh how I love Christmas!
