Decorating the Christmas Tree!

I guess I should talk a little about Thanksgiving first before I post the pictures of our Christmas tree. So, we had a great Thanksgiving. We went to dinner at my grandma's house with Chelsea and Matt and it was amazing! Grandma's are always the best cooks. Later that night we drove to Bryce's grandparents house to see all of his family and watch Christmas Vacation. It is tradition in Bryce's family to watch that movie on Thanksgiving but it was too late by time everyone was ready to watch it, so we watched it at home the next day. So we had a really good Thanksgiving break. It was nice to have Bryce home for a few days...we did a lot of organizing and cleaning which I think he loved! We did watch a lot of football too though, so we were both happy.



Since we are going to Oklahoma for Christmas this year we decided we better get a tree early so we can enjoy it for a few weeks. So we went on Saturday night and picked out a perfect little tree and then decorated it on Sunday.


Spencer helped untangle the lights...


So daddy could put them on the tree!!


He also helped us hang ornaments. He wasn't too excited about this though. I love his face...it is like he's saying "ahh, mom I don't want to hang ornaments!"



Spencer the Christmas tree!


Spencer says Happy Holidays to everyone with a big smile on his face!

I guess I should also mention that Spencer is 8 weeks old today! We went in for his 2 month check up today and found out that he now weighs 11 lbs 14 oz! The nurse looked at him when I took his outfit off and said "wow, he is such a round baby!" Yes, that is our Spencer...round chubby cheek baby! It makes him so cute though, don't you think?
