All Lit Up

Over the long weekend, Daddy and Mommy put up the Christmas tree. 

We wanted it to be ready for Waverly in the morning, so Saturday night, we fluffed and added some of the decorations. 

Waverly was so surprised when she woke up!

She immediately asked for the lights to be turned on.  She said the tree was "pretty"!

Mommy had saved several ornaments for Waverly to put on the tree.  Of course, she wanted to help decorate!

She was very careful with the ornaments (plastic, of course!) and she would choose just the right spot to place it on the tree.   

 Waverly would reach up high to spread the decorations all about! 

We think our little tree turned out to be quite pretty this year!  It had been several years since Mommy had decorated in red, and the added touches of white, silver and gold brought out the holiday spirit even more!  We are so excited that Waverly loved the tree!

Now every morning and every evening, Waverly asks for the tree to be lit up!  She will grab my hand and say "Lights! Lights!". 

We are also tickled to say that after 9 years of asking, Daddy finally agreed to put Christmas lights up outside.  We are now just as tacky as everyone else, and we love it!  Waverly was very excited to see the lights on the porch change colors.  Its going to be a wonderful holiday!
