Christmas is easily Tory's favorite holiday, and it has been so cute to see him introducing Skyla to all the holiday traditions. One of the most important ones of course is getting the Christmas tree! We all headed over to Flowercraft on Bayshore and searched until we found the perfect tree.
Here's our girl with the winning tree. As you can see, she is absolutely thrilled with our choice.
We got it all tied up to the top of our car, and did a much better job than last year. We thought we were being so clever last year tying it up ourselves but didn't realize we did so in a way that prevented us from opening any of the doors! I walked home and Tory slid into the car, then had to climb his way out to get out in front of our house (which was on a ridiculously steep hill so you can imagine how smoothe he looked doing it). This year we got it done perfectly and kept joking that something bad had to happen or it wouldn't be Christmas.
As soon as we got in the car and started driving away I looked at the clock and it was a very Christmas-y time!
That night we worked together to decorate the tree. Skyla did a great job and took much more interest in the decorating part of the process.
The whole experience was so fun and made us thankful once again that we have a little girl to celebrate the holidays with. I can't wait until the day she's old enough to wake up on Christmas morning, run downstairs, and get excited to see presents under the tree!
