The kids' Christmas trees

We have three little Christmas trees, and the day before Thanksgiving we took the kids to Hobby Lobby so they could pick out decorations. Morgan and Tannah decorated one, Leigh Ann and Emma had another, and Joshua had one all to himself.

Everyone had a blast picking out decorations for their trees, and when we got home we made a real mess decorating. Bags and packaging were strewn across the floor, but the trees were beautiful!

Tannah loved the snowmen ornaments she picked out, while Joshua really tried to make a color-coordinated theme for his. The other girls just had fun picking out the prettiest things they could find.

Here is a short video of them describing their trees.

Rachel's New Hobby

I have discovered digital scrapbooking and I am loving every minute of it. I can finally get to all the digital pictures Chris takes and easily use them.


I have been using a program called Scrapbook Factory Deluxe. It's user friendly, there's idiot pages with templates to make it easy, and there is also the ability to create pages from scratch. I liked it so much that I gave it to Sarah for an early birthday present.
