Decorating Time

Setting the mood for Christmas sometimes only requires dong simple changes to an environment. It's amazing how the look of something effects the feel and mood of an individual. I started with the outside of the house. Gabriel helped me set things up.
Then the tree...only Noah wanted to help. The older boys actually tried to convince me not to put a tree up. Last year we chose not to because we had just moved into our house, but this year I felt like it. Noah was excited! Although, he got pricked a few times. Kela enjoyed telling us what to do.All lit up. Now that feels nice!We also had to set out the kids' tree with their homemade ornaments and stockings. I still have to decorate my other rooms.Noah was proud of his job well done.

Yeah! I love decorating for christmas. Its amazing how much my mood can change after a very stressful day, just by cutting all the lights off except for the Christmas tree and then setting a couple of candles. I love Christmas time! =)

What no Christmas tree. I know it is not the purpose of Christmas but I have to have a tree. Although this year I do feel a little bah humbug so I am taking forever to put out my decorations.
