is it just me or is it really hard to settle on a theme for christmas? i mean christmas ornaments aren't cheap and you don't want to have to buy new ones every year. i finally decided to go traditional with a twist i chose red, white and a bright green. growing up i always loved my mom's christmas tree because it was kid friendly and whimsical so this is my attempt to recreate my moms tree. anyway jack really likes the tree and every time we turn on the lights he says "did mom decorate that?" i'm taking it as a compliment.
so after getting our tree and believe it or not watching fred claus i finally feel in the christmas spirit and to celebrate that we went to the phoenix zoo for "zoolights" with steph, jonathan, tyler and haylie. i highly recommend doing this, it is so cool and beautiful and the kids love it.

all throughout the zoo they have light animals running, jumping and sliding. the picture doesn't do it justice but it is awesome.
jack and tyler found this cave of lights and wanted to hang out their the rest of the night but we had more animals so to see. hope all of you guys are able to find fun christmas stuff to do. merry christmas everyone.

I'm glad you finally got your tree! I've had our tree up since the day after Thanksgiving. Even had wrapped gifts under it too, since my parents came down earlier in November and brought some of their gifts with them to save postage costs. We've just been adding to it ever since.
Good job Shan! Your tree is really cute
Yeah the tree came. It looks lovley
Your tree looks fabulous!!
I love your tree. It looks really good. I am the same way; I don't want to spend a ton on ornaments either. We just get one new ornament each year.
We miss you guys!
Your tree looks fantastic, and I love Jack's comment about your decorating! We have the same fake tree we've always had, and I got the same scratchy arms from putting the lights on it. If it's going to be fake anyway, we might as well get the pre-lit, right? Hopefully next year. The zoo sounds like a lot of fun! I wish we had something like that around here. Merry Christmas!
