tiny trees.

Three big and two little. Tree, that is. Five trees to assemble, decorate, and admire throughout the Christmas season. And five trees to disassemble and pack away. Am I crazy? Not as crazy as last year. Last year, there were six.

My favorite trees are the kiddos' tiny trees. P's eyes lit up when we unwrapped each and every ornament.

Our "jackpot" find of an ornament this year....P's new favorite.


Uga, trains, trucks, firemen, the McDonough courthouse, the Pink Pig. Each ornament is special.



And Emma Kate's tree? It's 100 percent girly girl. Ballerinas and tutus and slippers and crowns. And pink, pink, and more pink. I love it! (And she could care less.) Next year she will get to choose new ornaments to add to it.


Our family traditions that we have started become more and more special each Christmas. Our kids' excitement at this time of year takes me back to my childhood years of Christmas magic.

I feel your pain girl! I have 4 large ones, but only put up 3 this year. I have 2 smaller trees that managed to make their way up outside, and I got another small one for a Christmas gift. I love the small, pink tree! I might have to get HC one!
