O christmas tree

We decorated our house for Christmas the day after Thanksgiving. I wanted to do it sooner but Brent made me promise I'd wait until after Thanksgiving. We got a bigger tree this year and it took forever to put up. We had to take abreak in the middle of putting it up cause we got tired! It's 7.5' tall and really wide. We love it. Brent aslo wanted a fireplace so we all pitched in and made one out of construction paper. I think it turned out pretty cute. :) And lastly we wrote our Christmas wish lists to Santa.

Our "fireplace" complete with stockings.

The kids all ready to put their Santa letters in the mail.

You can't really tell how big it is in a picture, but so you have a reference ; We have vaulted 9' ceilings and the star barely fits on top of the tree.
