Christmas Decorating!

 Jonathan is learning the fine art of arranging the Christmas tree branches.

He seems to understand a little about the task at hand.

Decorating the Christmas tree was a lot of fun this year with Jonathan!

I gave the ornaments to Jonathan and he stuffed them into the tree, mostly in one spot. :)

I rearranged a bit, but it was fun to be able to use almost all of our Christmas ornaments this year. Somehow Jonathan was able to put more on the tree then we normally have in the past. :)

And of course we have to have Christmas lights! Thank you Jacob!

The final product... a cozy home decorated for Christmas. We decorated early this year because we wanted to have a lot of time to get into the swing of Christmas in the heat.

This year we didn't have an air conditioner to hang our stockings on but Jacob made a very nice little shelf to put in its place that works great for stockings, cards and speakers. And of course rubix cubes!

Our kitchen just after we went to the market on Saturday.

These are the fruits and vegetables available at Christmas time... bananas, avocado, sour sop, sweet potato and papaya. Oh and we also bought pineapple too!

Jonathan wasn't always happy about the Christmas decorating task... but he is a bit sick with a low grade fever and rash. Hopefully he will get better soon. He gets tired very easily!

Playing around to try to figure out the best place to take our Christmas photo this year. :)

Jacob rushed into the photo and Jonathan wasn't sure what to think. :) I think this view makes our Christmas tree look very small. :)
