We put our tree up on Friday night. I hope the boys stay this excited about it as they grow older, or at least fake it for dear old mom. They love going through the ornament box and finding the ones they've made to hang on the tree. When they tree was up, the pics were taken, and it was time for bed, Rylan said, "Can we leave it (the tree) up?" We had to promise him it would still be there in the morning. Love these moments!

My big boy, Bryce... 4th grade, 9 years old, 130 pounds, 5 ft 2 inches tall... I predict he'll be taller than me by 6th grade. (2 years)
My middle son, Jayden, full of a dry sense of humor at 6 years old. He looks just like my dad and brother. We often have to be careful not to spit out our food at the dinner table because of the funny things he unexpectedly says. He keeps us on our toes and makes us laugh constantly.
My "baby", Rylan tells me he'll always snuggle with me, even when he gets big. I hope it's true. People are constantly telling him how cute he is, and he is starting to use it to his advantage.

They thought they'd pose as a Christmas tree. Their idea..

Our finished tree all lit up!

Jayden said this was the first step and last step.

Rylan and Mommy "fluffing" the tree.

Just catching a "moment."

More "fluffing!"

The boys doing an "excited face" while waiting for Mommy and Daddy to figure out how to fit the huge tree in the small living room.
