Every year we have an ornament made with the boys picture on it.
We've done this since they were little.
It's cool to put all of those ornaments on the tree and watch them grow up.
Admittedly, they've grown too fast.
It's hard to believe we're halfway through Nolan's senior year.
We just ordered his cap and gown!
Back to the photos...
Sometimes we bring Pepper in to try to get a photo with her too.
She wasn't too cooperative.
This is the best we got.
Our silly dog just wanted to lay down and be pet.
She's not spoiled in the least.
Some of the silly pics...
You have to let them do "silly" so you can get the "serious" photos.
Then there's the giggling and tree poking...
More giggling.
I found the portrait selection on my phone's camera and finally got a better shot.
Someday I'm going to get an honest to goodness real camera.
Then I'll really let my inner photo bug out!
This is the latest we've ever put up our tree.
We normally do it the Friday after Thanksgiving.
I had just finished my three months of shop training and was pretty tired that weekend.
Those ten hour days wiped me out!
I'm so thankful to be back in the office with regular hours.
This year I remembered to try my gum wrapper chain as the garland for the tree.
It makes a unique garland!
