oh christmas tree

Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
We decorate your branches!
Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
We decorate your branches!
We clump together ornaments,
so now the branches all are bent!
Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
We decorate your branches!

Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
We love your piney essence!

Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
We love your piney essence!
It's so nice that you are real.
Sam really likes the way you feel! {taste}
Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
We love your piney essence!

Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
The twinkling lights are pretty!

Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
The twinkling lights are pretty!

J plugs them in, then takes them out,
And when the're off, G really pouts!

Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
The twinkling lights are pretty!




we love decorating the tree. i love watching the kids hang all the ornaments in "the most perfect spot EVER!" i'm sure this will never be admired by professional decorators and maybe by society's standards my tree isn't the prettiest...but every time i look at it it makes me smile. i was just talking to one of my sister-in-laws the other day and we were both laughing about our "clumps" of ornaments and thinking of how much we will miss this when it's over. so my perfectly decorated tree can wait {for a long time!} this tree is perfect to me.

I still don't have pretty Christmas tree thanks to the grandkiddos - but they sure do have fun undecorating and redecorating my tree and it's great! I'm thankful for little ones even if they make messes and mess things up :)

So cute. I love your pom pom garland. My kids are almost old enough to do the decorating. And I'm jealous of your real tree. It's been a couple of years. I love real trees. :o)
