I gave in early this year and put up our Christmas tree the weekend before Thanksgiving.... even put up lights on the outside of our house.... it just sounded so fun to enjoy it longer this year. 
The kids were so excited about it all of course. I handed them ornaments and let them decorate the tree by themselves, so there are several hanging from the very bottom branches, and there are also several inside close to the trunk that you can't even see. Oh well, it's just for them really anyway, right? And they will be taken off and moved about a trillion times in the next 4 weeks by all my curious little fingers anyway...

It turned out beautiful, now we just need to make a tree skirt and I've got plans for the kids to make several homemade ornaments throughout December that they'll get to add, that will be fun.
Oh, and by the way, in case you're wondering as you look at yet another picture of a topless Levi, I really do put clothes on my children I promise....this particular child just takes them back off, especially his shirt, about 20 times a day....
