'Tis The Season Thursday *Giveaway*

Our Christmas tree was decorated last Saturday.  I loved watching Hudson place ornaments on the tree.  After everything was hung he asked for more things to put up.  I told him that was all for now, but we will be making more before Christmas.

Craig had the brilliant idea to set up our camera so that it takes a sequence of random pictures as we were decorating.

We got some terrible pictures like this :

( No I had not been drinking!)

And some really sweet ones like this:

 Carefully placing all of the ornaments on the same branch.  It's the best branch of course and all of the ornaments deserve to be on it :)

We made the evening festive with a chicken dinner with all the trimmings (except i forgot cranberry sauce, but there were cranberries in the stuffing.)

The Grand Finale.

Ooooh Ahhh!
