Our Tree is Up!

Can you reach for the top? Higher and higher, almost there.  The kids are easily excitable, hyper over the tree.  A little trim at the bottom (for pressies), a douse of water, we are ready to bring it into the house.

The weather has been cool, the smell is in the air, Xmas carols, pressies on the way (for obvious reasons, why we can't have the presents under the tree too early :p), stock up on the champagne, the roast, the ham, we are almost ready for the long weekend. 

With Kids, it will not be quiet.

With Family, it will not be empty.

With Christmas, you will not be walking alone.
