Charlie and Anna were thrilled to find out that we get to start decorating for Christmas the weekend after Thanksgiving. We had put up the lights on the outside of our house a few days before since we knew we would be having a lot of company and wanted the house to look festive. We held off on everything else until Thanksgiving was celebrated, though.
We pulled out our (fake) tree and all the decorations from the basement after my family headed back to their respective homes. While Zach put up the tree Charlie and Anna cheered and ran around it inspecting it from every angle. Zoe was content to watch the madness!
After getting the tree up and putting on some decorations it was time for the tree topper. At my parents' house we have an angel on top of the tree that my dad and I have always put on together. We decided to continue that tradition here, but both Charlie and Anna want turns. So the angel goes on and comes off and goes on again as they both get a chance to do it with Daddy. It's really a fun tradition to continue.
