2010 Christmas Tree

After not too much looking we settled on our tree. The amazing thing was we picked out our tree on a pleasant night- no rain, freezing rain, or sleet. The kids were just ready to pick one so they could go get a candy cane. Charlie was just ready to pick one and be done. I wasn't convinced it was the perfect tree but I have to say it looks pretty perfect with the lights and ornaments. It was pajama day at school so Max ran all our errands that day with pjs on. I looked like one of "those" moms- and really, I am one of "those" moms most days :)



Also, Charlie got the lights up on the house on a warmish day. And we wrapped gifts a week before Christmas! The kids went to a 3 hour event at Maura's gymnastics place- they had fun running, jumping, doing crafts, having snacks while we wrapped- brilliant!
Maura made gifts and with dad's help wrapped them and put them under the tree.
