O Tannenbaum

We decided to get a Christmas tree the week of Christmas. We had a heck of a time finding a place that weren't sold out of trees. Once we found the trees, almost all the tree stands in the entire city were sold out!! Ack! We finally found a tree stand after running around for 2 hours, grabbed our tree, and came home to get it set up. Because we waited so long for the tree, we weren't expecting a great looking tree. The trees were pretty picked over. As the branches came down, we realized we ended up with probably the best looking tree we've ever had. It was beautiful. Here are some photos of Cora's first time decorating a tree. I think she'll be more excited about it next year. Lee and I had fun though.

Didn't she do a good job with that ornament?

What is making Cora so happy?

It's her Elmo as the tree topper! He didn't stay up there though. :)
