Oh Christmas Tree

A momentous event happened over the weekend at the VB house....I put up our Christmas tree! Many of you readers know that I didn't like to bother with those "formalities" of the Christmas season...but this year I felt that we needed to start a tradition with decorating for the holidays and measure Leah's growth in front of the tree each year.
I am also quite excited about getting a stocking for Leah's first Christmas. She looks quite thrilled (as you can see) when I explained to her how Christmas worked.

Ha. Love the face! \
I think I may have to check out that tree in person to make sure you didn't photo shop it in.
