Charlie Brown Christmas Tree

We had the best intentions of having a beautifully decorated tree this year. We went to our old haunt, Star Nursery, since their trees are only $20 for a 5-6 footer. Everything was going wonderfully splendid. The boys were behaving, the first tree we picked was the one we got, then we got home. Don't get me wrong. We were still having a wonderful time, but then we finished. That's when the shock came in because we saw what our tree ended up looking like. First of all, we decided to let the boys decorate. Second of all, it looked A LOT bigger at the store. Oh well. I'm sure when Alain and I are old and gray, sitting at home by ourselves (in peace and quiet of course) looking at our beautifully decorated tree (which was not finished in less than 10 mins. like ours was this year) we'll be wishing we had our old 2009 Charlie Brown Christmas Tree again.
Here are some pictures for your enjoyment :)




As you can see, our star is crooked as well as our tree :) You can't really see it too well unless you come over, but all of the ornaments are clumped into clusters!! We also didn't put all of our decorations on it because we thought Ty (the only one of the three) would be the one to find the tree. We were right! We've already caught him over there attacking the thing. Oh the joys of parenthood ;P

  1. How funny!! At least it'll be something you remember for a long time, right? Mason won't touch our tree (thank heavens) he brushed against while I was setting it up and started to cry... Kenna on the other hand keeps trying to eat the holly berries and has brought me an ornament on several different occasions! You were right... the joys of parenthood!
