We finally found a night that we were together enough to decorate the tree. It was 8:30, and Tibi still had to shower, but we got it done. It gets different every year almost, as the numbers dwindle down to the last two kids. Michaela even missed out this year because she is still in California having more fun with Marc anyway. We LOVE to decorate the tree... it is one the highlights of the season for us. Mostly because we get to put the White House ornaments on. We have decided that we need a 2nd tree in the house for all of the decorations we have had since Kevin and I were young marrieds, because those memories are not yet ready to be thrown away by the kids. The problem is that none of them go with the beautiful gold White House ornaments that were given to us every year by grandpa and grandma while they were in Washington, D.C. If you look close, you can see how pretty they are...they actually end up being the prettiest thing in the house in December...(no kidding)

Your White House ornaments (and your tree) are gorgeous!
I don't know why the tree is one of my favortie decorations. Maybe it's because so many traditions come with it. Yous looks fantastic.
What a fun tree. I love it. Looks like your getting all ready! Don't you love this time of year? Hope we get to see you!
Looks great! Although you might have to move the breakables up once we all arrive!
Marce won't touch the ornaments...as long as Eden doesn't! ha ha Yay! I'm glad it's up and now you can drink hot chocolate and listen to Christmas music with all the lights off watching the tree. It just makes those bricks back there glow! Can't wait to come!
I love putting up the tree! It's the highlight of my Christmas.
Yeah we will just have to teach the kids not to touch them. They will learn fast. Haha
looks great guys.. really sad i missed it. thank goodness marc's mom put us in charge of picking up a tree for their house!
