Let me just start this entry by saying that this was the first, day after Thanksgiving, that I did NOT have to work at J.C. Penney's in 9 years! For anyone who has worked retail during the holidays you will know how excited I was that I didn't have to wake up at 3:00AM but more importantly that I got to spend my favorite time of year with my family.
Megan is all bundled up because I got to spend Friday putting up Christmas decoration outside. I love decorating the house, the yard and just everything that goes with Christmas. Megan didn't last to long outside so our decorating continued through Sunday. But when she wasn't fussy she enjoyed watching all of the shiny things.
Just in case you needed proof that she liked looking at all of the shiny things. She was overly tired this weekend so this was a rare moment when she wasn't crying on Sunday. For a while nothing would calm her not even the lights on the tree. Grandma Berthold came over so we could finish the decorating and she got Megan to sleep. When our house looked like Christmas, I caved and held Megan while she slept. She was asleep for almost 2 hours and when she woke up she was back to being herself. To much play with her cousins this weekend! 
Tah-dah! Christmas Tree, oh Christmas Tree...did I mention I love Christmas. Here is Megan's first Christmas tree, with one of Baron's toys underneath. I was joking when I asked Baron to stay next to the tree (he has never stayed when we ask) But he actually let me take a picture and didn't move for about 5 minutes. Now Megan will have this beautiful tree to look at. And don't worry there will be more pictures of decorations because I love Christmas!!!

Megan looks so cute all bundled up outside!
I've worked retail before, I know how the day after Thanksgiving is. Not fun. Glad you got to spend time with your family this year.
Your tree looks great, I love your tree skirt!
Oh yes I remember the good old days at JCPenney's the day after Thanksgiving and Christmas. They are days full of "FUN".......... But Family time has so many more memories. I am glad to see you are spending all the holidays with family and friends. Those memories will last a life time.
Happy Holidays,
