Like I said...Charlie Brown. We LOVE IT!
On an icy morning, we headed out to find us a scrawny little tree that would surely not make it to next winter. We found him perched precariously on the side of the road.
The lights needed to be strung toward the trunk, used a ball of yarn for garland as the branches barely supported the weight of even the lightest ornaments...but we persevered! Hung them on hooks and toward the trunk...to better stabilize the little guy...giving it depth :) :P
There is just something about cutting down a real tree..especially a Charlie Brown one. We have our large artificial in the living room, but this one sits proudly in our dining room where all can see his true beauty. Welcome Charlie.
If cutting down a Christmas Tree was not enough, yesterday was Amelia's very first Ice Show! We made it a day event, bringing lunch and watching her teacher and other skaters take the ice. It was spectacular :)
Enjoying the Show with buddy Arianna.
She is suppose to be in a straight line here and I heard her say something to her teacher, but not sure what. Guess she didn't want to give up the gift.
They were the last of the tot groups to go on and I am not saying this because my fabulous kid was in it, but they were the best of all the little guys...seriously. :P AND the only group that was color coordinated!
This is where her and James realize they need to leave their presents that are just empty wrapped boxes.
Not too happy about that and wanted me to go get it after she got off the ice. I said I would make her a new one as the snow was coming down in buckets and it was time to head home :)
Hoping dance and skating are a lifelong love.
So far, so good.
