Last weekend was simply precious and unforgettable. Each year we go and get our fresh tree. It wasn't the same this year because Danica wasn't there. Its always fun to have Danica around because the 2 of us always fight which tree we are getting and it takes about an hour until we both come to a decision. She is still at college. But it was such a pleasure with the little ones. Biruk kept saying are we buying a tree for outside? He could not fathom that we wanted to bring the tree in the house. After Kevin and I finally hauled it inside, they both had their mouth open and were just in awe the whole time. So I brought up the decorations and we started to decorate "some". The tree is still not finished. Can you believe it? But i guess it really doesn't matter because having the little ones home this year is truly the most important thing and iam breathing in every moment I have with them. Its amazing that they have been here almost a year and there are still so many firsts. BTW, they just discovered marshmallows and are absolutely hooked. Last year around this time I was not ready for Christmas and was just ready to pick up my babies. So blessed!!!
Hopefully I will have an update soon on our newest additions.

Love the pix of them decorating!! Too cute!
It might take a while to decorate that huge tree! Can't wait to see it all done up! Our kids are going to enjoy this Christmas!
Precious pictures. And um, it might be my fault you don't have time to blog since you have been helping me with 'things'. LOL ;0)
I forgot that this is still a "first" for them. Now I remember clearly, but wow, what a difference it will make with having your kids home this year.
