Owie and I made homemade pizza, a special meal for a special occasion. After I cleaned up all the flour that had been ceremonially sprinkled all over the kitchen floor, we brought forth the tree.
Aaaaaaah!
Check out O's reaction as we plugged it in! Priceless!
He loves the lights! To accompany our decorating, O sang Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star over and over in honor of the twinkle lights.
The tree box received some extra-special attention.
As always, Nosy is right in the middle of all the action! He was on tippy-toes straining to look inside the ornament box.
Each year, I find an ornament for the Boys that reflects in some way their current interests or personalities. For Owie's first Christmas I found a glass rubber ducky ornament, since the Boy was enamoured with rubber ducks. This year, O is old enough to actually hang his own ornament on the tree!
Just as quickly as O could get the ornaments hung, No-nos was right behind him, removing every one!
Noah found a big red ball ornament. You can almost see his wheels turning in this picture.
"Hmmm. I can think of a much better use for this ball than hanging on a tree!"
Making a sneaky get-away.
Good throw, Scooter! Thankfully, it was a non-breakable ornament!
After Noah got frustrated trying to undecorate our tree, he played some wonderful music on the "bongos" to accompany our festivities.
My beautiful children...and grandchildren. John and Jeremiah were very involved in our tree decorating!
Please note that all decorations are now placed out of Noah's reach. The bottom of our tree is completely bare!

So fun. I LOVE the pic of Noah's face when he's throwing the ornament!
We too have our ornaments hanging about two feet from the bottom of the tree. :o)
