On Sunday we pulled out all our inside Christmas decor to put up and get us in the spirit for our favorite holiday of the year! It is so fun this year since Ella is able to participate in decorating. Well, she had fun playing in the boxes, lights, and other things she shouldn't be touching. :) We waited until later in the evening to do everything, so E is warm and cozy in her pj's in these pictures while "helping" out.
First things first, checking to make sure the lights still work with daddy...
Now to try on the reindeer ears while daddy hangs the lights on the tree...
Putting the first ornament on...
Learning to "be gentle" when touching the tree...
And of course she had to give the ornament a kiss, like she does with everything else!
Ella added her own "ornament" to the tree...
The finished product!
More decor on the bar...
I LOVE this Little People nativity scene that Ella got last year from Aunt Sissy. We put it down low so she can play with it any time she wants. She now knows who Mary, Joseph, Baby Jesus, the Wise men, and of course all the animals are. It is precious to hear her say their names as she picks them up. The angel on top also plays music when you push it...so sweet!
Our nice one is staying way up high on the armour so a certain set of little hands doesn't get to it!
Since it was pretty nasty out that day the outside lights didn't get put up. Hopefully the weather will allow us to get that done this weekend. Can't wait to see it all done!
