Christmas Tree Decorating - 2012

So I decided to get a big tree this year hoping that Drew would not become obsessed with it and knock it down.  So far, so good.  After five time outs in one day for taking my ribbon off the tree he has let it go . . . for now.

I tried to get a cute picture of the kids before we started putting the ornaments on the tree.  Totally failed, but they made me laugh:

The kids got right into decorating:

Isla showing me her favorite ornaments - grapes, starbucks cup, bottle of wine (great) and a ball.  Her and Drew took turns pretending to drink out of the wine bottle ornament (double great):

The finished product (after Mom and Dad moved some of the ornaments to the top 2/3 of the tree):

Not sure how I feel about the tree this year as we went for a Fraser fir instead of our normal noble fir.  It is slowly growing on me though.
