Decorating for Christmas

It is that time of year... to decorate! Usually Mike gets the fabulous job of putting up lights all by himself, with a little cord holding help from me. This year, he got help from the little kids! They got creative this year and not only put up the icicle lights, but put colored lights up in a V pattern.

Here is Abigail climbing up the ladder to hook the lights on.

Kade pounding the stake in to the ground

Kade hooking lights onto the nail... he did not like climbing up there!

Jace just wanted to go up the ladder, he went to the top, but would not get on the roof.

Later in the evening, it was time to come in, get warm and decorate the tree.

Abigail putting the star fish Santa on the tree. (Yes this year there are decorations other than nativities on the tree!)

Jace putting up a decoration.

Madison putting on a bulb.

Kade (well it is Kade I promise) decorating the tree (I can not get the photo to turn... I have it the right way on my computer!)

We hope you all have a Merry Christmas, and remember that Jesus is the Reason for the Season.
