Brian was very sad because Costco is out of trees. No $30 bargain tree for us today. We did find a pretty good one at a lot we often frequent. With two young kids we are usually up and about pretty early. In fact we were at the tree lot before the tree lot people. Daddy and Max had to figure out the net machine and then my boys posed with the winning tree. Luckily there was a place to drop our envelope with the payment.
Once we got home, ate lunch, and put Will down for a nap we tackled the lights. Some how this always ends up being a momma job. Max did help by plugging in the new strand every time one was needed. He also hung a few ornaments here and there.
The highlight for Max was putting the star on the top. He picked out this pretty blue glittery one all by himself at Target the other day. There was no way I was going to be able to talk him out of it.
Will was pretty excited when he woke up from his nap and found the new addition in the living room. The sheer look of awe on his face was priceless.
It was actually pretty funny he made a bee line for the ornament that Max made in school last year. It has his Max's picture and Will grabbed it and started yelling 'Ma, Ma'. I have a feeling the entire bottom half of our tree is going to need to be free of ornaments soon. Will just can't stay away from it. So fun. Now I need to get wrapping so that there are some presents under that tree!
