It’s a little funny to be writing this post after Christmas has come and gone, but better late than never!
We went to get our Christmas tree the weekend after Thanksgiving. We’d thought about going to a tree farm to cut our tree this year, but Andrew wanted to go back to Jung’s (I think he was hoping for a post-tree visit to Culver’s). These kids are rapid tree deciders.
We picked out a Douglas Fir again this year, and we named it Ferb after Andrew’s favorite cartoon, Phineas and Ferb.
Sylvie is happy about getting a Christmas tree! She’s practicing her high knee skipping.

Melted my heart to turn around in the car to see Andrew and Sylvia’s fingers intertwined over the top of the tree. Life is more fun with a sibling to share it with!
We got Ferb home, and while Bryan draped it in lights, I pulled out all the boxes of Christmas decorations and our Christmas plates. Bye bye fall, hello Christmas!
She’s loving this, isn’t she. It melts my heart.
What a fun, decorated tree!
It’s pretty fun to be three years old at Christmas time!
Bryan put up the outside lights, and poof! our home was ready for Christmas.
My mom had bought a bunch of Bitty Baby/Bitty Twins outfits, and I pulled out a few for Sylvia. So the twins (Linda and Rose Crystal) got Christmas sweater outfits and Evie got a polar bear snow suit. Thanks, Mom! Sylvie loves ’em.
