This year since we moved all of our Christmas decorations, tree, etc are all in storage and we have no idea where so we decided this year that we would get a live tree and then make homemade decorations and have an old fashioned Christmas. It has been fun for the girls and I today to make decorations. It definitely takes longer this way, but is definitely cheaper as well than buying all new decorations. We got the tree last night, beautiful tree from a tree lot and it smells so good - I forgot how the fresh smell of pine is. We did the red and green construction paper chains and worked on that and got those finished and then went to stringing the popcorn...definitely NOT as easy as it looks - LOL. But, we got that all finished and decided that was good for the day. We heard lots of fun Christmas songs on the radio while we worked and decided we would finish the homemade star tree topper and the snowflake decorations tomorrow. SO, here is what we have so far, but I'm proud of us, I think it has been great and definitely a Christmas that the girls will not forget.
