Fixin Up the Tree!!

Well Its that time of the year again.. Time to get out all the pretty decorations and get the right tree or the fake one u own cause that's easier lol.. and fix everything up all pretty. To get out all those Christmas lights out where only half of them work, like every year lol..Where every yr u find yourself fussing about it but make due somehow or just go buy new ones haha..The kids get all excited bout fixing up the tree n u have to hear them fight bout who puts the angel or star on top of the tree.. You get to go to the Christmas parade n stand out there freezing ur butt off just so the kids can see Santa n get sum candy n see someone they know in the parade. Even though its soo cold you have fun anyways n then when its over you cant wait to get home n get warm. You try your hardest to get the kids what they really want so they aren't disappointed even though it can be hard to do sometimes. Your proud when u can at least get them something to put under the tree..I can always remember when I was growing up how exciting it was getting up in the mornings n seeing all those gifts under the tree. And trying to figure out what they were before Christmas day or where mom hide the good stuff..haha she would always hide them in such a good place that was right there in front of us n we never knew it lol...On Christmas eve how you lay in bed at night trying to go to sleep but u couldn't cause you were too excited bout Santa coming..Its cute watching my kids be that way n the looks on their faces when they drag u in the living room to show u what they got from Santa..Makes you wanna hold on to those moments longer cause they grow up way to fast n you miss those times you had with your kids.How sweet it is standing in the kitchen making those special cookies just for Santa n wanting to eat em all before your done lol..I am very thankful this year to have my 3 wonderful girls. I really hope they are happy with what they get cause its been a hard yr for us. At least we have each other that's all I need.
