Christmas tree shopping with good friends is way too much fun- especially when everybody starts feeling and acting like kids! The only problem was choosing between the two trees we had narrowed down. Mo insisted that the "other one" was way better, and after getting ours home I think he may have been right. Oh well, you know how it is- Here's me insisting that this will be the year that the tree will truly be just perfect, only to find out as soon as we get home that there is a huge gaping hole dead center of the tree, not to mention it takes up half of the living room. Lots of tinsel there I guess. Hmm, I thought we really checked all this out but perhaps we were just blinded by love and excitement. Any hey the kids love it! And Linc takes a gasping breath every time he sees it in the morning after waking up and says "Tree!".

I'll take it!

Three sisters and a momma!

Getting together with family is absolutely my favorite part of the holidays! We are so richly blessed with each other. Any day our beautiful Z-girl will be joining our girl crew. It's kind of funny how we were three girls and one boy growing up, then we were sort of overtaken with mostly boys for a while in our family. Now the scales are evening with Jess' fiance and her daughter in the mix and my new niece on the way. Yeah baby-girl power!
