~The Paul Tree~ aka..The Griswolds!

We FINALLY decorated the tree! We realized that last year we threw out the tree lights after 11 years of use. Scott had some other ones which I am not too fond of since they do not blink,flicker or change. Well there were so many lights left, I went into the garage to find hooks for some ornaments that he pulled his Clark Griswold and started putting the lights around the shutters on the window....HELLO! I love my husband, he is so innocently cute! The kids made us some awesome ornaments for the tree in school. We are a family who does not have a theme on our tree! We LOVE the ones the kids make and Scott and I have made it a tradition to get an ornament when we vacation. Also we have ornaments from our dating years, ones family has given us, and also friends. Our tree is a THEME of LOVE, and a Collection of love for the past 13 years of our marriage, and 20 + years we have known each other. Awwwwwwwwww.......... :) Avery is driving us Crazy she is like an old bitty she keeps re-arranging all the decorations!
