Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree...

Today we got our Christmas Tree from our favorite little outdoor market, Patterson's...Ava's first tree! Adam had a tough time at first...& certainly didn't want to take a picture!
But "Oliver", the "Guard Dog" cheered him right up..."Mommy, he's cute!"
Adam couldn't get enough...And I can never get enough of that smile!
On the drive home, Adam said to Kev & I..."Thank you Mommy & Daddy for picking out a tree for me!"...oh how our hearts melted!

When we got home, Kev & I put up the tree & Adam played with the neighbor, Tennison. We are so thankful for Tennison...as he is eleven & is always so willing to play with Adam! He is the nicest kid and very well mannered & behaved! They play outside for hours every weekend. (Last weekend, they literally rode the wagon down the hill as fast as they could into the tree circle time and time again, laughing all the way down for about 5 hours!) Today, Tennison introduced Adam to Nerf guns (& of course, safety goggles!)...they were a hit with Adam!
Ava watched Daddy start the fire...
