Christmas Time Is Here

Sticking with tradition, I managed to get the tree put up on the day after Thanksgiving...and this year we have a REAL tree...in size.  It's still an artifiicial tree, but we upgraded to a 7 footer instead of our little one that sat on the table.  Brady enjoyed playing in the box of course!

 I decided to wait to decorate the tree until we could do it as a family, which really meant waiting until Quentin took his registry on Monday because he was much too busy spending all his time studying,  Well all that studying was worth it because HE PASSED!  Not only did he pass, he got a great score too!  We are soooooo proud of him and all his hard work and it's great to see that hard work finally pay off. But instead of celebrating by decorating the tree, my parents took us all out to eat at Cheddars, which was delcious!  By the time we got home from that it was time for little Brady man to go to bed, so we saved the tree for Tuesday and Brady had a blast!  He helped decorate the tree at my parent's house, so he was a pro :)  He kept grabbing ornaments and saying "To the tree!"  It is so fun to hear him talking.  He tries to say so much.  Some of it is undecipherable, but he sure tries and most of the time does  a pretty good job.  Anyway, he is such a great helper and he definitely loves to help!
