Deck the Halls

I love when we put up the tree.  Sort of.  Decorating always looks good on paper.  Reality is never all smiles and halos.  Until this year.  I had the perfect tree decorating experience, even if it only lasted 5 minutes.  The entire family was happy and participating in trimming the tree.  *BLISS*  We give the kids a new ornament every year.  This year, Riley got a teddy bear ornament which made me cry in the middle of Target.  He saw it and his little face lit up.  I was touched that he liked it, so my eyes welled up with tears.  Max picked out a big M, and Alexis chose pink birds!
