DECORATING THE TREE!

Let the mayhem begin. Decorating a tree with 4 kids, 3 under 3yrs old can be quite a fun/stressful event. We started out the night ordering pizza and picking up donuts to carry on the Rodgers tradition of a "party" when you decorate the tree (only our donuts were store bought and not home made, our Christmas music was from a CD not a record and we decorated Dec. 4th and growing up my family didn't decorate until after my birthday so I would feel like it was my birthday and not Christmas!) All the kids loved Daddy picking them up to hang the ornaments high on the tree, Tyson broke 4 ornaments and Tyler took all the hooks off the bulbs as fast as he could and separated them into piles. Before the tree was all decorated we put the kiddos up to the island to drink hot chocolate and eat donuts while I hurried and finished the tree trimming.
