Don't you just love to spend Thanksgiving weekend bringing out all your Christmas decorations? I sure do. It never fails that every year I always end up saying, "Awww I forgot about this!!!", upon discovering things I had gotten on clearance after Christmas last year, or things I've had forever that I simply forgot about. I think Christmas is so much fun with children around. They just glow with the spirit of Christmas and their excitement is contagious. It's starting to look a little like Christmas around our house...
"Here Mama... get rid of the pumpkins! It's Christmas time!"
My little helper... he did a great job decorating the tree this year! He probably did about half of them!
Our tree topper... possibly one of my very favorite items I get to dig out of the box. I got this about 4 years ago at Swoozie's on 75% off clearance!
Some of Camden's favorite items. This moose sings "Grandma got run over by a reindeer". David and I have seriously contemplated ripping out the noise-maker in this thing. :)
You can stop laughing now at Anderson's little mis-matched, out of place stocking. We got it for him last year as a temporary until we could get a big one for him. The problem is, the original stockings are 4 years old and we won't ever be able to find a 4th one just alike. Eventually (maybe at the after-Christmas sales) we can buy 4 (maybe 5...) new stockings that all match. Hopefully by next year's Christmas post we will have them up there, monogrammed and all. :)
Happy beginning-of-Christmas season!

Here's a mom tip for you...never buy matching stockings until you are completely done having children!
OR...Go to Lands End and buy their stockings...that way you can add one more as the babies keep coming! (this is what I finally did to solve my stocking issue!)
I have yet to comment on your blog although I do check it out from time to time but I have to say I LOVE your tree topper super cute!!
