rockin' around the christmas tree

"chopping" down the tree - not! it was raining and miserable out! emilia and i waited in the car!
ooh! a star!
the worst part of the tree process - putting it in the base!
dancing!
Well, the tree is up and it looks like Santa and his elves have been busy in the house. We finally got it all set up for our annual open house on Sunday. Our tree this year is the biggest one we've had yet - an 8 foot Frasier fir beauty. And we finally have a star on top to boot - like real grownups! Emilia loves looking at the lights on the tree and loved dancing to the Christmas carols while we trimmed the tree. She only broke one ornament (so far) and it wasn't a particularly special one anyway so that was fine. Happy holidays!
