Christmas Preparations!

The M& M's were a big hit with Anna! The peanuts ... not so much...

The big kids came over to help decorate the tree. As the evening went on no one seemed to be decorating, so we told everyone to put on 10 ornaments and then they could go back to visiting!

Sarah loved decorating the tree! She was a good worker!!

Anna loved putting up decorations- all of hers went on the same branch! I kept moving them around to different spots on the tree!

Many hands make light work!! Hubby and I were thrilled to have everyone help out! For many years we decorated it ourselves. The older kids were not interested and Johnny boycotted it because we would not buy a white tree- we are so mean! With the younger kids in the home now everyone wants in on the fun!

Sweet girl!

Such a precious helper!

Sarah wanted to try on these old christmas stockings. She doesn't quite get why we hang them on the mantle!

It was so helpful having everyone work together! We had the job done in no time!

Except we had a few of the helpers get sidetracked because of the football game!

Anna is a climber! She is standing on the arm of the couch so she can reach higher! I guess you need to be resourceful when you are that little!

Smile! We are almost done!

The finished product!
