It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!

Here's our huge 12 foot tree. What was I thinking? You should have seen McKenzie and I trying to set this up when Mark wasn't home. We love it, though.
Decorating our gingerbread house (thank you Costco and Aunt Chelsea for helping)

After ten years of living in warmer climates we were so excited to wake up to this. I'm afraid the kids will be disappointed when they come home and it's all melted. Notice the new playset that Mark and the kids have spent every weekend for a month putting together. What a project!

What a tree! And what a cool playset. I can't show it to Skylar because then she will be really jealous. Oh wait she will see it in person in just a few weeks, hooray!!

I love the christmas tree! We had a tree that tall every Christmas! It will be a tradition now...start shopping for the bargain ornaments after christmas! Miss you!

Wait a minute- that tree looks like it's tilting slightly to the right and little bit back too! Hahaha just kidding it looks gorgeous (sorry we never fixed that problem ;) ) Aren't you glad I got that picture of the kids 'looking natural' with the gingerbread house!!

how wonderful to have a view like that and no close neighbors.
