It's almost that time. . .

I know, I know, we're probably jumping the gun a bit but we decided to pull out the Christmas decorations Sunday afternoon. I must say, after our decorating marathon, I'm quite excited for the Holiday Season. The kids were so cute. Cambrie and Tatum were loving every minute of it. They couldn't pull ornaments out of the boxes fast enough. Jake woke up from his nap and came downstairs saying, "BIG MESS, BIG MESS!" He was right, but 2 1/2 hours later, we were finished. Jason convinced me that I had to let the kids help decorate the tree, so my usual 'theme' tree was out the window, but who has their own tree with all Manly, Outdoor ornaments? Yep, you guessed it, Jason does. Well, we're definitely excited we'll be home this year for the first time with all 3 kiddos, so we made sure everyone had a tree! I love sitting in the family room at night just looking at the lights. It's definitely peaceful! Christmas here we come!
This is so cute. The girls even slept in their Santa Hats.



Here's Jake's Tree!

Whoo HOOOO!!! Oh man, I just LOVE Christmas. I would so have my decorations up to - if I didn't have a baahumbug of a husband. I am shooting for next week to get all of mine up! Can't wait! Although my boys and I have been jammin' to Christmas music for over a month now. Got the pine scent cookin' in the scentsy. So I am all ready!

My mom does her big tree of course and then she has a grandkids Christmas tree. I think that is such a great idea.

I want to see the FINAL product of the Christmas tree!!!!

I'm jealous! I listened to Christmas music the whole way back from SLC last week. I love it! Show more pictures of your decor.

So I was doing a little blog hopping today and found yours- how cute!
WOW you are on top of things!! We usually don't get decorations up until well into december -trying to avoid the tree tipping that usually happens. But this year the older two want to do it the day after Thanksgiving so we will see if we accomplish it!! I love the hats ;)
