So at last our Christmas tree is up and decorated!
Yaaaaay!!!
Burton was very excited when his grampy turned up with it just before his teatime on Tuesday night and once he had eaten all his ‘marmite and cheese’ (he is obsessed with marmite on toast/bread with cheese chunks) we set to work on decorating our lovely tree.
Daddy started off by adding the lights
and then we all got tuck in to adding our baubles onto its branches.
then came the important task of adding the twinkle twinkle golden star to the top of the tree – a job for Burton the wonder boy!
Its funny how you forget certain things from your own childhood until you see a child do it in front of you, and that reminds you that you did the same when you used to help your parents decorate your family tree! Burton wanted to keep adding tree decorations to one part of the tree which we let him to a point and then had to carefully suggest that we move some around in case the tree toppled over lol
Anyway, we think our tree looks quite festive and it certainly makes that Christmas feeling ever more present in our home now.
Thank you xx

Those are such lovely photos!! I love tree decorating but this year I let my two boys do it, which was hard as I had to fight the urge to move everything!! Great post!

That’s a lovely tree Jenny…a very nice shape to it. Burton really looks as though he’s concentrating on those decorations! How nice if you’d had some mince pies to eat whilst decorating it! Haha

Aww lovely decorations 🙂 I missed out on decorating out tree at home, but I had done it for the last 12 years so was time to give someone else the chance!
