Blessing, tree, & snow

Last Sunday Brad blessed James and it was a very special time.
Blessed Boy
For family night we went and got our tree. We have only had 1 other real tree during our marriage, but Brad reminded me that this year we wouldn't have any kids that would eat pine needles or tip the tree over, so went to and got a fresh one- and it smells wonderful (we also had them drill it and got a cool stand so set up was easy.)
We all had a great time decorating- "lights, then beads, then ornaments Kate"
Ta, Da!

It also snowed for the first time last night - Bruce was way excited!

Oh what a sweet blessed and BIG boy! How much does he weigh now? Our little 10 weeker is tipping the scales at 9 lbs 9 oz... definitely a tiny guy, for sure! Your family, your tree, your cheerful smile... all look so great! We miss you!

I'm so glad Brad's family was able to make it out for Thanksgiving and the blessing - having family there always makes it more memorable and significant. Can't wait for Eli and James to meet...

Way to get an awesome tree. It's about ten times bigger than the small tree that I have.
