Deck the Halls.....

with boughs of holly. Fa la la la la la la:):) It is officially the Christmas season and our home is decked out and smells like a Christmas tree! Yay for celebrating the birth of our Savior!

December is a busy month for our family not only because of all the traveling we do to see family for the holidays but because there are so many birthdays to celebrate! Jonathan celebrated his 28th birthday on the 3rd and his birthday dinner and dessert request was homemade buffalo chicken wings and an iced angel food cake! The other birthdays in December are my dad, our niece Corinne, me, and my mom! Plus the biggest birthday of all, Jesus!

Wyatt is helping Daddy celebrate!

The cake!

Before we left to go to Toledo for Thanksgiving I decided that I wanted to decorate for Christmas so that when we came home we would have that much longer to enjoy it all:) On Jonny's birthday we went to get our little Christmas tree.

On a little side trip to Wal-Mart for lights Jonny tried on his outfit for Halloween next year!


Of course, this is Wyatt's first Christmas so that calls for a photo op!!

It is so much fun to see Christmas through the eyes of a parent. I keep thinking of fun traditions that I want to be a part of our celebrations and of all the 'new' stories that we will get to share with Wyatt:) What are some of your favorite holiday traditions and books?
