Get it? "O" as in the O'Rourke Christmas tree! Yesterday we braved the chilly, snowy weather and trudged through the parking at Lowe's to pick out our tree (they have great trees there). We picked a bigger tree than we had last year and also a different type (Douglas Fir). After dad got the tree tied on top of the car (we went inside and pushed all the buttons on the Christmas dancing/singing stuff a million times) we slowly drove home:) BC got the tree all trimmed up and ready to bring inside. We think he's really strong because he can lift a tree!
Here's dad and Dec putting up the lights:)
Declan put on the first ornament, a tiny Pooh bear!
Helping dad put lights on the staircase.
(Those are the stockings I made two years ago!)
"Where should this one go?"
Putting on the tree topper...yes, it's a Santa hat, we can't find a traditional topper that isn't tacky, ugly or gaudy.
Our Christmas tree! Now we just need Santa to come with the presents!
