The day after we got home from Virginia we headed to the Christmas Tree farm to cut ours down. 

Sophie trying her best to saw the trunk. 

Dave and the girls with the kill. 

Later that week we decorated the tree. Definitely one of my favorite things to do in the Christmas season. I love taking out all of the ornaments and remembering the story each has. Especially the homemade ones from the girls. 

Lydia helped decorate too

The final product! 

Benson stayed by the fire and monitored our process. 

Earlier that day Lydia took the girls to see Santa at the King of Prussia mall. Sophie is asking for a stuffed unicorn, LOL dolls (which are apparently the hot item this year), a makeup kit, and a surprise.  Lauren just wants a stuffed cat. We’ll see what Santa delivers.
