So I hope everybody had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We spent Thanksgiving with Jeff's family, whom I love. My sister in law and her boyfriend had a huge spread at their house, with 3 turkeys. Needless to say, we had more than enough food. We had such a great time, and the kids love going over their. Lots to do :)
But it was a very nice and relaxing day and we spent the weekend with mom and dad. On Sunday we went to church together and then all piled in mom and dad's van and went eagle watching. On Lake Coeur d Alene, the fish spawn this time of year and after they do they die, so the Bald Eagles migrate there to eat. It was pretty amazing to see those huge beautiful birds. We probably spotted about 5 or 6 of them. It was way cool.
So now onto decorating the Christmas tree. The kids were so excited and could not wait to get the tree up. So we had the Christmas music going and the hot chocolate and all of the ornament at the bottom of the tree :)
So those of you who have had children remember when they are little your tree looks so off balance because all of the ornaments are on the top of the tree to keep the kids out of them. I think that was my tree a couple of years ago. Nothing on the bottom.
Well........times have changed, because this is what the bottom of my tree looks like this year.
Each branch has about 5 or 6 ornament on it. They thought that it looked better when they were all together like a "family" :)
So now that the tree is up, Isn't it supposed to be time for Christmas?????
We are having a hard time now waiting for Christmas to get here.
I hope everybody has a blessed day.

Your tree is so pretty!!! We have a 3 feet fake tree that has one strand of lights and a construction paper chain, a chain made out of penne pasta and a construction paper Santa on top. It's kind of trashy, but Lily pulls it down almost daily so I didn't want to risk breaking ornaments. Luke and Jacob look actually kind of similar which is weird since Dave and Jeff look NOTHING alike. Anyway - I'm glad you are doing well. Were you able to buy a new house or are you renting that one? It's cute!
What cute pictures! I can't believe how big they're getting! Jacob actually looks a lot like his sister, too! They look like they had so much fun! Do you have pictures of your new house?
