CKW #4 - Decorating the tree

This is post #4 in our Christmas Kickoff Week. See below for posts about buying a Christmas tree, our first snow, and the Christmas parade.

Last Sunday we decorated the Christmas tree that we had bought on Saturday. When we got out the ornaments, Leland decided to try on the stocking. She was a great helper putting all the ornaments on the tree. See the video below to watch her put the star on the top.



Here is the family in front of the finished product and also the tree by itself.

Below are two videos of Leland's excitement. In the first, she made up a song about Christmas trees on the spot. Ashley was trying to get her to sing Jingle Bells (see the second video), but instead she made up this song and actions on the spot.

  1. The video of her putting the star on the tree is precious. And I can't believe she knows the words to so many songs. She rang the bell perfectly while singing Jingle Bells. Cutie pie!
