Getting Ready for Christmas!

Christmas will look a little different in our house this year. We didn't bring any holiday decorations with us at all since space was at a premium. And there aren't any fresh Christmas trees available here so we bought a fake one this year. It smelled like plastic when we took it out of the box, but the upside of the fake tree is that we got to set it up already and we won't have to vacuum as much. We bought some ornaments from the BX and presto: we are ready for Christmas!








Josh likes to take pictures with Mommy's camera, this one didn't turn out too bad:














Josh then became obsessed with the ornaments and developed a "pattern" of them.











He was quite overprotective of them and wouldn't let us put them on the tree for awhile.




It took some negotiating...


Here's Maddie and her very first Christmas tree:

Wow, what a great job decorating the tree...I can almost smell it from here! Oh, maybe that's the heater I can smell. Beautiful pictures, especially enjoyed the artful ornaments and the ensuing saga.Maddie looks like she will be contemplating the tree for awhile, before choosing her next course of action. Love, Mom Dudek
