We put our tree up last night….
Every year I try to wait until the day after Thanksgiving to put our Christmas tree. I tried it doesn’t mean that it always happens. This year With both the boys being a little bit older and a little bit more excited about putting up the Christmas tree we decided to go ahead and do it a week early.
It all started with the Christmas ornaments. I had to go ahead and get shatterproof so that my boys well, wouldn’t break anything.
I can keep my boys out of the ornaments and away from the Christmas tree for more than five seconds on my husband was trying to get it ready. If only you could see the expression look on their face when I finally gave him the “okay”
It was all downhill from there.
I do have to say that, I love our Christmas tree (you can also look at websites like gardenersdream.co.uk, or visit your local store, to find a similar tree). It was all made with love and fun and a tradition that our family will continue to do every year ending with the star on the top of the tree that we bought our first year of marriage.
I had to in this post with a simple picture to show that not only were the boys having fun putting the tree up Ryan on the left my little girl couldn’t keep her eyes off the Christmas tree either. She also was included! Merry Christmas everybody.
It looks good. I'm lucky if we get our tree up before Christmas Eve. LOL
Putting up the tree is so much fun! If it were up to the kids, we'd put it up as soon as November rolls around, but I refuse to do any Christmas decorating until after Thanksgiving.
I need to show this post to my husband. He thinks we shouldn't decorate for Christmas until after the American Thanksgiving 🙁 lol.
Aww your tree is lovely! Looks like your boys had such a fun time putting it up. Ours won't go up until December 1st but I can't wait to get my little one involved too 🙂
You are making me so excited about putting my tree up which I haven't done yet. Hopefully we'll get it up Friday. Thanks for the fun and cute photos to inspire.
Wow you got a nice start. I am so behind, i dread getting all the decorations down from the attic. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Having a Christmas tree at home spells a lot of difference in terms of the happy vibe. We have also put up ours this early! 🙂
We put our tree up a week earlier than we typically do also. I love your tree… we have the same color scheme 😛
Great photos! I love your tree. And your boys look so happy helping out.
What a beautiful tree 🙂 I am planning to put mine up soon as well! What a great family activity!
Putting up christmas tree is always such fun!
We also try to put it up as a family, I'm hoping we can put it up today. I always get so excited for this, I love Christmas.
Ah it's so nice how you all help each other to build up your Christmas tree! It's amazing!
Beautiful tree and looks like lots of family fun decorating it! I can't believe it's getting so close to Christmas already!
NOthing more fun than putting up and decorating the Christmas tree with the family!
So pretty! I love those red ornaments. 🙂
Your Christmas tree looks beautiful! I love the white lights and red glittery balls!
I'm like you I've had my Christmas tree up for the last two weeks. Mom will sit and look at it for a long time, we all enjoy it.
Your boys are adorable. I think your tree looks fantastic. Great job!
So exciting! And it looks great 🙂 We're putting ours up this weekend and I think I'm more excited than the kids! lol
Looks like your family had a lot of fun! I have been itching to get a tree, but it's been our family tradition to cut down a real one 3 weeks before Christmas..so it the last bit of decoration we do when setting our house and property up for the Christmas season. I'm so happy you get to do yours sooner! 🙂
Your boys are so sweet. We are putting up our tree this week. My daughter cannot wait
Pretty! I've already made a tradition here of putting up the Christmas tree and decking the house with Christmas decor the weekend before Thanksgiving. I started it last year. 🙂
This is way too adorable! I love how the littlest was watching everyone put the tree up! I have extra Xmas cheer this year too
I can't wait to put ours up! Yours is beautiful.

Your tree looks so beautiful! I love the last photo of your daughter staring at it – so cute!
How wonderful! We cut down a real tree, so no tree yet for us. When we do, we go as a family and chop it down then bring it home, let it dry then decorate while listening to Christmas music together as a family. It's just fun!
What a lovely family.. Christmas is really getting near! 🙂
Your tree looks awesome! Great tradition, I love that Ryan is watching the guys of the family 🙂 #SuperCute
We usually put our tree up the weekend after Thanksgiving but are holding off a bit this year. Not only are we getting a taller, skinnier tree to fit the space better, but my youngest put teeth marks in a bunch of my hand painted plaster ornaments last year.
We haven't put our tree up yet. The kids are ready! We'd better get on it.
