Christmas has gotten off to a limping start in the Hutson household. After a failed attempt at going to youth group on Wednesday night (we were halfway there, Lila was screaming because she was hungry, we forgot the diaper bag, church is 30 min away, you get the picture), Lila conked out and gave us an opportunity to get enough done in our dining room that we could move the dining room table out of the living room...making room for a Christmas tree!
But not until after hanging out with my family on Friday night, eating Twinkie cake, and listening to Donna the Deer Lady on youtube.
Finally, though, on Saturday night, we were able to go out and pick our Christmas tree!
Lila wasn't totally sure what was going on, but she was very excited and wanted to touch all of the trees.
Notice that Johnny is wearing short sleeves and Lila doesn't have a coat on. It was crazy warm. Last year, I remember not getting out of the car because it was so cold, and I was pregnant, that has to add at least ten degrees to your regular body temp.
Lila waited very patiently for Daddy to tie the tree on the car. At this point, I realized that I didn't really clean all the carrots off her face. Poor kid.
Anyway, we got the tree put up last night and started doing a little bit of decorating this morning. You can see a sneak peak of the dining room color there in the corner. I'm really pushing to get it finished this week so that our Christmas decorating can be finished, you know, maybe before Christmas.
