My Little Elves

Mommy's most treasured Christmas decoration, her Willow Tree Nativity. Kellan also gets very excited when I bring this out. I now have two helpers in setting this up, arranging all the animals, wise men, Mary, Joseph and Baby Jesus (or Gee-gee, as Henry calls Him). I stay near by at all times for fear of one of them breaking! A sheep has lost an ear in years past.

Yep, I'm very close, especially next to the bull in the china shop (aka Henry!). Ta-da (another Henryism), it is completely set up and lovely!!

Now, on to decorating the tree. What should we start with boys? Santa looks good. They are both carefully trying to put the ornaments on the branches. If they had it their way, just the bottom third of the tree would be decorated!

Lights first is really the plan I like to follow. Sorry Kellan, I think your little chair isn't going to be quite tall enough! We'll get it done sometime before Christmas.
