Decorating for Christmas




David and Ryan had so much fun decorating for Christmas this year, and I enjoyed watching them! It all started with the lights. Every day when I'd get home from work there would be a new tree or shrub lit up outside. Some days the lights would be rearranged, because they just weren't perfect.

Every time Ryan would find a clip he'd put it in his pocket. Apparently, when David was putting the light on the roof Ryan would hand him the clips to help. They had the best time, and still enjoy going out to plug the lights in together.

They also enjoyed decorating Great Grandma Sue's (Karen's Mom) ceramic Christmas tree. Ryan loved putting the bulbs in all the holes.

Then, they moved on to the Nativity set. There was a discussion about whether or not we should put it up this year. I envisioned all the pieces broken in a day as Ryan would think the animals were toys. David insisted it go up. Ryan has obeyed our strict instructions to not touch, so far. He actually knows who every one is, and we love how he says "Jesus".
