I started this article almost 3 weeks ago, and am just now getting around to publishing it..  I guess I forgot that I had never finished it. 

 

The day after Thanksgiving, we put up our Christmas tree!  Madeline had soooo much fun helping! 

 

hmm, I wonder what this thing tastes like:

 

I can help you take the branches out of the box Mommy!

 

 

 

Helping Mommy fix branches:

 

 

Helping Daddy put a few on the tree:

 

When I got near the top, I realized I was missing several branches, then I realized Maddie had been "helping" put them in the tree. 
So I started checking in the tree and sure enough, there were several of my missing branches, shoved up in between the others! lol!

 

 

and handing Mommy a branch to put on the tree:

 

Thanks for looking!
