My Tree

I wanted to take a moment to thank my children for decorating the tree this year.  Normally this is something that has always been "Mom's thing" to do.  However with working, I just couldn't get it done when I wanted to this year.  My son came home from college on the 11th and has been a terrifically HUGE help to me with my "to do" list.

my favorite - tree lit & no other lights in the room

the ornaments: handmade, hallmark & white house ornaments

He and his sister were good elves and decorated the entire tree for me after our light debacle.  I was just so frustrated that I couldn't see past the mishap with all of the hours I was working at the time.  Here are some more photos of my lovely tree.

Thanks kids for helping your Mom out with the holiday stress.  I LOVE you for it!
