there's that Christmas cheer in the air- that must mean its time to get the Christmas decorations out! ledge helped me go down to the garage and pull out the boxes filled the tree and everything. we started the evening like we always do when its tree decorating time: we put some Christmas cookies in the oven and let that glorious smell fill the air!
with Christmas music playing, we get to work assembling the tree. then its time for the best part, putting the ornaments on it! ledge pulls out his handy step stool so he can reach all the way up to the top. he is surprisingly good at figuring out where to put the ornaments to keep the tree balanced and well covered. after the general ornaments go up, then its time for the special handmade craft ornaments that ledge has made over the years- he makes sure to make these very prominent for everyone to see!
then, the piece de resistance: the star. this is always a favorite because it shines light all the way up to our extra high ceiling, which always looks awesome!
finally, its up and now we are ready for the season! before you know it it'll be present time!
