Oh, Christmas tree!

We started our Christmas decorating last night. For the last couple weeks, Ella has been asking when she can put up her pink Christmas tree almost every single day. When we started pulling out the boxes, she and Cade were squealing and jumping around. They were so excited! First, they watched as Daddy put the two small trees next to the fireplace. Then we lit a fire and turned on Christmas music. So very cozy!!
Cade was carrying around the essentials- some jingle bells and a Wii remote. haha!
Next up- Ella's pink tree!! She and Daddy worked hard to spread out all the branches (while Cade was busy jumping off the furniture!).
Very pretty, Ella! She told Cade, "I know you love my pink tree, Bubby. Just get a little bigger like me and then maybe you can have your very own blue tree for your room."
Stopping for a little snack...
And a squeeze from Mommy...
Then we rearranged the furniture to put up the big tree. These two thought it was more fun to sit on the couch while we pushed...
Cade kept blowing on the lights like he was trying to blow out a candle. We were cracking up. He is too sweet!
Ella wanted to see what the tree looked like upside-down...
And Cade quickly found a perfect, new hiding place...
Then Ella was excited to show Cade a few of her favorite Christmas decorations. The singing moose...
And the Mickey carousel. When Cade saw this one, he gasped and said, "Oh, Mittey!"
They quickly became a little preoccupied, so we decided to save the decorating for another night. Maybe tonight or tomorrow. Lots more Christmas fun to come!
