Giggling Baby and Christmas Trees

I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving.  Mommy had to work, so Elliot and Daddy packed up and headed over to have Thanksgiving with our good friends Amy and Andrew and their family.  And, yes, we brought plenty of left overs home to Mom!

The rest of the weekend, we took it pretty easy.  We did motivate ourselves to decorate for Christmas though (we missed you Sammy Christmas, but you are always in our hearts!).  We made a bold decision to leave the fake tree in the attic and on Sunday we headed out to the forrest (aka Lowes) to find our Christmas tree.  Below are some pictures of the finished product!  Also, check out the video at the bottom of the blog.  We had to do the sneaky camera angle b/c she would get distracted when she saw the camera.

Your tree looks really pretty. I bet you're enjoying the smell, especially with it in the living room. Thanks for the creative camera work her voice is precious and giggles are the best, unless they turn into hiccups. Love you!!!

HI Jennie,
I found you guys blog over from Megan Doak. It so great to see you and hear you are doing well. It has been a LONG time. Your little girl is adorable.
Tim and I have a little girl too named Hadassah. She was born in March in France. Long story...but we were over in Paris for two years doing mission work. We returned to Amarillo in May and are here visiting family until we move to San Francisco in January. Anyways it would be great to reconnect and catch up. We don't have an updated blog right now but I have a facebook I use a lot that has pictures. My e-mail is lesmills@mac.com.

I'm sure this is just the first of many times that we will swap does Malachi...? or does Elliot...? stories!!! Love the stockings and treeskirt! WE totally tried to order those and they're out of them at Pottery Barn - I'm not sure WHERE we'll find stockings now!! ;o(
