Picking out the perfect tree, and running around the tree lot like the wild boys that they are!
Ashley snuggled up in her car seat, staying warm.
John and his hot coco, wishing he was cutting down his tree, rather than picking one out at a K-Mart parking lot. 
Luke called dibs on putting the star on top this year. He got to climb up on dads shoulders so he could reach. Luke is still talking about how exciting that was for him. 
I grew up with the tradition of burning a candlestick every night until Christmas, and now I have carried that tradition down to my kiddos. This is that same Santa and candle holder from when I was a kid.
Noah tends to spit when he blows the candle out, that is if Lukers ever gives him a chance to do so, because Luke usually gets to it first.
We are really looking forward to this Christmas. It is a lot more fun to be the Santa. I love picking out things for my kids. I can't wait for family to get in town. And I love to look at all the Christmas lights. We have been thru Eastridge a few times already. Anytime we leave my parents house at night time. Luke begs to go see the big star and all the lights in the neighborhood.
P.S. Remember how Christmas is next week. When did that happen?!?!
