Lindsey, Mom, And Dad Decorate For Christmas

We spent Thanksgiving afternoon decorating our house for Christmas. We bought a new tree this year because the one we had was pretty sad!! Our new one is BIG. It didn't look that big in the store. Lindsey had a blast decorating it! This was the first year she really could actually help us. However, halfway through the decorating we noticed most of the ornaments were on the bottom branches because she is so short!! So, I had to move them up the tree when she was not looking.

Lindsey Gets Early Birthday Gift

Laurie and I decided to get Lindsey a "big girl" bed for her birthday. We bought her a loft bed where one end is a computer desk and the other end has book shelves and some drawers. We decided to get it to save space in her room since her room is not that big. We had to give it to her early because it was a clearance item, and we were worried they would sell out before her birthday on Decmeber 8th. So, we ended up giving it to her on Sunday, November 20th. She LOVES it and has done nothing but play IN her bed.
