Decorating the Tree With Lots of Helping Hands

The kids were ready to decorate the tree the minute we got home from seeing Santa. We did make them wait until after dinner. The kids are such a big help decorating....and they are fast. I am also grateful they are equally willing to help undecorate the tree after Christmas.

Wade was not too sure what to think of the tree at first. But let me assure you he is not scared or timid any more. He knows how to turn the lights on and off. He thinks it is his job to turn them on whenever they are off. He has also broke one of my favorite ornaments that was part of a set...now I just have a set of three. :0( With a little rearranging of ornaments after that mishap things have went much better. I really don't care if he rearranges or takes off the ornaments left on the bottom so we are getting along fine.





Luke poses for this picture every year. I do think it is funny....but not as funny as he does.
All done decorating...I told you they were fast. Most of the ornaments are on the same four or five branches, but that is how I like my tree decorated!!

that is the best way for them to decorate the tree! :) Over the years it will gradually change I am sure and the memory will remain of the 4 and 5 ornaments on one branch. :) I am glad they are so helpful!

Helping hands cannot be beat no matter how small.
