Decorating the tree

Preparing for Christmas has been a lot of fun this year, now that Austin is old enough to understand it and participate in the traditions. He is very excited about Santa coming. He has asked Santa for a "Dinoco Helicopter" from the movie Cars. He can barely contain his excitement about the presents under the tree and keeps asking if he can open one. He enjoyed helping decorate the tree this year, and surprisingly, no ornaments were broken! At first, he somehow got the idea that ornaments were called "carols," so he kept asking when we were going to put the Christmas carols on the tree!
