it's beginning to look a lot like christmas!

i love christmas! it's my absolute favorite holiday and this year i was more anxious then ever for thanksgiving to be over. i refuse to decorate until after thanksgiving or listen to christmas music until thanksgiving night. call me weird, i know, but that's how i am. anyway, this year the reason i was so anxious was because of this....

it's the fisher price little people nativity set. the nativity was molly's favorite christmas decoration last year and i wanted her to have it last year. i didn't get it. but this year, matt didn't hesitate and told me to go ahead and buy it! i love him! ;) he knows what makes me happy! molly and sophie are having fun playing with it.

saturday we went out to cut down the drake family christmas tree. this is one of my favorite parts of christmas. finding the perfect tree - and the weather was absolutely beautiful for tree picking!

we found one!

and came home and decorated it! molly and sophie also unwrapped their new ornament for the tree.

it's finished.....ta da!
