Christmas tree!

So after the big move into our house last month and various Thanksgiving celebrates, we are back with some updates, including lots of pictures of the past few weeks.

Starting with the most recent: our Christmas tree! We ended up going to the same tree farm that we got our tree from last year, and were really happy with what we found. Our friends from church, Billy and Lindsay, went with us so that Billy could help Martin with the tree, seeing as I was a bit unable to haul this year! It was a really cold day, but we found a nice one and cut it down easily (as pictured below).

When we got home I cut the binding off the tree so we could start putting on the lights and decorations. We have a great spot for our tree in the "morning room" of our house. It has windows on the one wall and our sliding glass door on the other, so the lights on the tree are really visible from the outside!

Martin finding the perfect spot to hang an ornament:

Our first Christmas in our new house! God has really blessed us this year, and the house is just one way that we can see how He's worked in our lives. Its going to be really fun this year to have people over and enjoy all the extra space that we have!

there will be more house pictures soon, but for now just this one red wall!
