The kids (particularly Creed) were REALLY excited to deck the halls this year. I told them if they cleaned fast and picked up all the fall time decorations that we could do it the day after Thanksgiving. They moved fast and we all decked the house. Brent got the lights up outside in a few minutes. It helps when you can just reach up and hang the lights without a ladder. Everyone loved watching them twinkle out their bedroom windows and on the stairs. It is a lot more fun to decorate this house than it was our old one for some reason. The kids helped with Grandma Jennings's Christmas village and it made me really homesick for my mom...but I am sure she is more homesick since she is actually away from home. I got to put out my nativity that I got for Christmas last year and it was really fun to have an actual nativity that was nice and wouldn't get played with constantly. (although we did put the touchable ones out too) And just to avoid the yearly fight Creed put on the star. Next year is Cami's turn.
