It's beginning to look a little more like Christmas

Like I promised, Sam and I got our tree yesterday. A perfectly proportioned tree that my Sam personally picked out. We started the morning as always with a big breakfast and a dose of CBS Sunday Morning and then we headed out in to the freezing cold to work on the outside. Sam gracefully trimmed back the dead plants and tidied up the porch. We threw out our lingering pumpkins and got to work on the decorations. We picked out these swag lights last Christmas and I was so excited to put them up. We had a little trouble figuring out how they worked...





Then we headed over to Mom and Dad's and I stayed with Mom, Rach, and Tilda while we put the boys in charge of picking out the trees.

After a delightful family lunch, which included doritos and oreos (sticking to my diet you see) we went to take care of the final details. We trimmed the tree and our house.
