Sam was so sad the day after Halloween. He couldn't understand why it had to go away but I convinced him to not be sad because we had plenty of other fun holidays to look forward to. We talked about Thanksgiving and Christmas and he kept wanting to know when they would be here. I told him as soon as Thanksgiving was over that we would start getting ready for Christmas. Needless to say, this boy has been patiently awaiting this day.
We all took a good nap this afternoon so we would be rested for the decorating ahead. When we woke up it was time to go to the local farmer's market to pick out our tree. Sam found us the perfect one!

The ladies at the farmer's market are always so sweet to my boys and tonight they gave each of them a banana. Jack thought it was so yummy!
Sam was such a great helper and loved looking at all of the decorations as we unwrapped them. Unfortunately by the time we unloaded the tree and ate dinner it was time for Jack to go to bed. I bet he will be ready to decorate next year!
This sweet boy is so proud of his tree!
In the midst of the decorating excitement, one of our smoke detectors started beeping from a low battery and of course we were out of the battery we needed. So while Daddy was gone to Walmart, this big boy helped me put all of the lights on the tree. It certainly was helpful to have another set of hands and definitely made things go faster.
With a little help from Daddy, Sam put the pretty star on our tree. He was smiling from ear to ear!
Adam and I stayed up late and finished the rest of the decorating. I can't wait for Sam to get up in the morning and see everything. He is going to love it!
