We're not really late on decorating. I'm just really late on posting! We started putting up our trees the day after Thanksgiving, like we do every year, and spead the decorating out over the next week or so. We have two trees this year. One a bit more stylish, the other more old-fashioned for the kids. The kids' tree has colored lights, garland, beads, bows, candy canes, bulbs, and tons of different ornaments. Graham helped decorate his tree. He was SO into it. It was so cute to watch him get and ornament and run up to the tree.
The Kids's Tree, fully trimmed.... :)

| The ornament we bought for Graham last Christmas (we buy one each year). |
 |
| The kids each have their favorite ornament. Macy likes that little basketball, and Graham likes the working "See n' Say" ornament. |
 |
| Admiring his work! |
 |
| Kisses under the tree! XOXO |
Our other tree is decorated the same as we have been doing for years...white lights, with a gold and brown theme.
 |
| We almost had to cut a hole in the ceiling! ;P |
 |
| This year, Joel picked up these very interesting African ornaments. Love them! <3 |

| A mama and her babe. |
Lastly, our mantle. Oh how it warms my heart to see FOUR stockings hung with care!
We have some other decorations around that I forgot to photograph...the railings are decorated with greenery and red bulbs, a wreath on the door, a small decorative tree, little snowmen around, and of course Graham's Christmas art is on display in the playroom. Seeing all the decorations around makes me all warm and fuzzy! I just love Christmastime!
Off I go...a little boy is home sick today and I hear him starting to whimper. Have a great day! Stay healthy...I'm trying to!!

I have a sickie at home too, boo! Lovely trees, both of them!
I so admire that you have time and talent to do two trees! They are both beautiful:) Confession, we still have not got our up!
I LOVE this post! Everything looks gorgeous!
Beautiful!
Ha, now that is a tight tree fit.
We are one up on you with trees and have three--a kids and Dad version upstairs and two theme trees downstairs.
Oh how I wish we had the room to do 2 trees.... always have! Right now (and since forever) we have a semi-themed/semi-fun tree.... and we had to put the kitchen table in storage this year just to have a place for it *sigh.... life
Anyway, I'll stop with this and just say that your decor is beautiful! And your kids look like they are having so much fun with it!
Yay for two trees!
Both trees look beautiful!
Beautiful pictures of your trees! I wish I had the patience to learn how to use my camera properly.
