It took our family three days to get our tree up. What can I say??? It takes the Wolfepack a little while to get things done. ;) LOL
Brandon was the first to help.
He was enthusiastic!
He even ran out in the rain to get my lights for me. =)Aww...
Well, I just love decorating!
It is so fun selecting the perfect ornaments.
I have to choose carefully. I don't put up anything that does not represent Christ in some way. This ornament was given to me by my friend Amy, and since it's a star...it's perfect!

Gabriel was next to help.
He liked the big white ones...for the purity of Christ.
What a cutie!
Noah was determined to get the tree finished! He kept encouraging me to complete it.
He put gold on for one of the gifts of the wise men...
Ahahahaha!!!
Kela was interested in the kid tree, though...and especially the presents under it.
I told her she had to help decorate, so she put up her ornaments...
...which most everthing on this tree was made by her. =)
Dad felt like hanging himself from all my requests.
However, he knows he better cooperate with me. ;) LOL!
Frankie was the last to make a contribution.
Oh, good choice Frankie! The dove represents the Holy Ghost...yes, we need it!
...and the horn...a representation of the shepherds...and Christ who is the Good Shepherd.
Yes! Yes! Yes! The star is up, and we are finally finished!

I couldn't dare part with it! It's definitely a keeper!

Love it! Love it! Love it! How did you get the kids to jump out the pictures like that? Did you do photoshop?
Not to mention that its better to get a new tree AFTER christmas, that way their sooo much cheaper. Preston and I got a $120 for $40!!
BTW - your tree looks so beautiful!
Seriously, as much as you take pics...you've got to get a real camera!! : )
