With three playing soccer this year, much of our Saturday was spend at the soccer fields. Brett decided since he was going to be at the fields anyway, he would go ahead and coach both of the girl's soccer teams and be the referee for Spencer's team. It was fun to have him so involved with all the teams (although not as fun for me to take care of the rest of the kids on my own). Being at the field all day did produce some fun random pictures though. . .
You may wonder what this picture has to do with decorating a Christmas tree. Well, as I put the lights on the tree lots of the needles were falling off, so the kids decided the needles would make an awesome bed for their squishies (little rubber animals). Pretty creative. As you can tell, they were very enthralled with what they were doing. Although there were some tears throughout the process, I "think" we had lots of fun and the tree did get decorated. The kids were great at making sure the ornaments were spread out. I love this tradition of decorating the tree as a family, even if it is chaos during the process.
