Christmas prep

 It is such a chore to put up the Christmas stuff, however this year it went smoothly.  We got all the totes upstairs and unloaded in record time. Brie and PJ were even helpful this year. After we got the tree stabilized the kids had a grand time putting on the ornaments, discussing whos was whos and where they got them. It was enjoyable to listen to them.

Brie being the youngest was given the honor of placing the angel atop the tree. She was so proud and her siblings were happy for her as well. 

The toy nativity scenes returned as well and Brie was very excited to have "new toys".  We have decided she probably only has faint memories of last Christmas, thus making this like another "first Christmas" for her again. It was sweet to listen to the kids each explain to her the different parts of Christmas they think are special. PJ even had a few stories for her.
