Let the "Traditions" Begin...

It's the day after Thanksgiving and I have been talking to Trace about starting our own family traditions to carry out every year. Now that we have a daughter, I want to do special things year after year that hopefully will be special enough to her that she'll share them with her family someday. I wanted today and day's after Thanksgiving to come, to involve putting up the Christmas tree as a family while listening to Christmas music. Trace's input for the day was to begin by going to Cracker Barrell for breakfast/lunch and then end the day playing games together. We accomplished them all!

We picked Trevor up this morning and headed for Cracker Barrell!

Trevor enjoys playing with the "rockets" and the triangle!!

Here we go kids, we're going to put up the tree!

Trevor helped separate the branches by putting them in piles according to the different colors.

Trace & Trevor needed a cookie break...Candy Cane Oreos...Yummy!

Time for the ornaments!

Taa Daaa!!



It's Game Time!! Trace introduced Trevor to the Wii today and he absolutely loves it and...is really good at it. He's a natural shot!

We had a really fun day together with lots of smiles and laughs! It was a good start to our new family traditions.
