It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

One of my favorite Christmas traditions is decorating the day after Thanksgiving.  This year I was tempted to put the decorations up early, but I held out, and we kept our day-after tradition.  Brent kept asking if I was in my happy place, and I definitely was.  We had our favorite Christmas Pandora station playing, and Ava loved it! She has started "dancing" when music comes on, and it's pretty adorable.  She also loved us dancing around and acting silly.  So far, she has done well keeping away from the tree.  We hold her and let her look at it, but we try not to let her go over to it or try to pull up on it.  I also didn't put any ornaments on the very bottom of the tree.  One of these days I'll do a more proper house tour, but here is most of our Christmas decor!  It puts a spring in my step to see the tree lit all day!
