Festivities!

 I love decorating the christmas tree! i think it is one of the most fun parts of christmas and one of my favorite FHE's all year! Brad on the other hand isn't so enthusiastic about it but he helps with it even though he thinks there is pressure to make the tree look perfect- i try to tell him with 2 little kids it will never look perfect and i'm okay with that! Brad trying to help heston put an ornament up high- heston has a slight fear of christmas trees. i know that sounds really weird but in his case it is fairly justified because for some crazy reason we end up with the POKIEST trees! one year it made me bleed while putting the lights on- and so heston thinks all chrismas trees are "pokies"  and it actually works out pretty nice for us because he really doesn't mess with the tree much. Well except when we were dragging it outside and all of his toy cars were falling out of it- apparently it's fun to throw things into the tree

 putting the angle up- i can't find a star i love so for now we just do the angel
