holiday traditions

For the first time in as long as I can remember, our holiday decorations went up the day after Thanksgiving. Of course, we had to include my mom's handmade bear ornaments. I love how my youngest daughter decided to line them up across the front of the tree. I don't think they've ever made that formation before -- I love it!



My daughters are seen here decorating our fresh Noble Fir. They decided to start their own tradition of decorating a small tree to keep in their bedroom. They made one from tree bough cuttings and a trunk stump. I think they did a splendid job. What do you think?



Cheers!
