Today was a crazy busy day! We all woke up fairly early and went to work tidying the house for company and our week away. Mr. Stannix was a champ and I couldn't have pulled things off this weekend without him! Early in the morning he took the older two out to shovel the giant mound of snow left by the plow. We spent the rest of the morning running errands. He picked up an awesome tree stand and then we went to buy our first real Christmas tree!
The kids were thrilled to walk around the little place and pick their very own tree. I loved trailing behind them, snapping pictures and enjoying the smell of Christmas.
Daddy stood up a couple of trees and we let them decide if they were tall enough.
Eventually we found one they liked and our strong Daddy carried it to the van and strapped it on the roof. Mr. Stannix and I put it in the stand tonight after everyone left to get it ready for decorating tomorrow. Our house smells amazing and I can't wait to see the kids faces in the morning when they see how tall it is! I just love Christmas time!
