Sunday - Christmas Tree

Christmas Tree O' Christmas Tree

Today we put up the Christmas tree.  We had plans to do at least 100 other things too but that is all we accomplished.  It was a really nice day.  We played Christmas songs and each had a glass of hot chocolate.  Even though it was about 90F out today the hot chocolate still hit the spot.  The Kahlua didn't hurt.

 Kaia is in a hamming-it-up-for-the-camera phase.  Here she models 2 Christmas stockings, 3 leotards topped with one bathing suit and Teo's blue shirt, a Christmas tree skirt, a much too small Santa hat, and a goofy grin.

 Because we can't ever do something the easy way we also rearranged the living room.  It is much more open now.  I LOVE it!!  Notice the nice festive Frosty hanging to the left of the tree.  And notice that Kaia is completely redressed again in multiple long sleeve layers and long pants on this 90F day!

 Since Teo was crying in the last one.  And a close-up of the tree.

We also gave in today and moved the dining table to the porch.  We have only eaten inside a dozen of times over the last year.  Instead, until today, we would all hunch over a small coffee table outside meal after meal after meal.  This is much nicer.  I am sure you can also tell who drops the most food while eating :)
