Tree is up!

We put up our Christmas tree today to remember Uncle Ben's Birthday! We used a different tree skirt for the first time. I made one YEARS ago from old Christmas nightgowns I had . . . still have it - but changing things up a bit. This one is "shiney." (:
The kids were so excited to help put the tree together!
Here is our tree! Nothing LARGE or too grand. (: A 6 foot tree isn't that tall! (: We used to have a 4 foot one and then we were given this - not too much taller, but the price was right! That's the best time to upgrade! (:
The kids LOVED putting all the ornaments on - what a modge-podge we have!

I remember those nightgowns. :) I think it is good that our trees aren't to large...then it makes the one at the mall or the big outside ones special too. (I have a small one that is 18-24 inches tall...I put it in the girls room and tell them that is what I used when I lived in an appt...so a 6 foot tree is really tall compared to that one.)
