One.

Seems impossible an entire year has already come and gone.
Ellie is 1!!!!

Christmas tree....oh Christmas tree

You know, I was a little worried about putting up the tree with Ellie being "into" everything and all, but surprisingly she never touches it. No, Ellie did not do this. Nor did Nathan who painstakingly hung each ornament out of Ellie's reach. And in case you are wondering... this was not my doing either...nope, this was all Eric. Eric has always hated this tree, I think he is secretly trying destroy this tree a little each year until they come out with some kind of amazing tree that just pops out of a box and is already lit and decorated, then he will finally finish this tree off. Until then I will continue to buy replacement parts for this tree. Did I mention I LOVE this tree? Its so big and full and easy to put together and it was the tree we had when I was growing up until my parents gave it to Eric and I, so it was also free. Everyone who comes over thinks its real. They just don't make trees like this anymore. So when my new tree stand gets here, I will have her up and decorated... again. Nice try Eric, but you ain't getting rid of her so easily this year!
