Decking the Halls

We are usually very insistent upon not getting out the Christmas decorations until after Thanksgiving, but this year we decided to do things differently. I realized the other day that we would only get to enjoy the decorations for a couple weeks if we waited until after Thanksgiving, since we will be going to Fayetteville sometime the second week of December. So, in an effort to maximize our enjoyment of these things, we decided to put up the tree a week early. James insisted that Jesse be awake when we got the tree out, so here are some pictures of our festivities. Jesse didn't seem to be too excited about the tree (he liked playing with the branches, but we quickly took those away since he could easily poke an eye out with the ends of them), but he loved the lights.


Playing with his Little People Nativity Set. He loves making it play music (Away in a Manger) and chewing on all the pieces. He also loves turning the stable on its side and putting all the people and animals in it.

When James draped the lights on himself, Jesse thought this was really funny.

His favorite part of the nativity set is baby Jesus. He shows his love by putting baby Jesus in his mouth, of course.
