Christmas is on it's way!

I love Christmas and am really excited for this year. It will be Dawson's first Christmas and we got some cute 'first christmas' pj's. What else do you get a 3 month old baby??
This is our Christmas Tree. J.D.'s family has a tradition that every year, the saturday after Thanksgiving we up in the mountains and get Christmas trees. It is so fun! Then we eat turkey sandwhiches and have hot chocolate afterwards. J.D. found such a good tree this year! We even took Dawson up and he loved it. (He loves being outside) We found out that J.D. has always had a star on there family's tree growing up, and I have always had an angel. .. We decided to do an angel this year. It's interesting the different traditions in each family. Maybe we will do a star next year.
My favorite part of Christmas is waking up really early when it's still way dark outside, Santa has already come, and then sitting there just looking at the tree all lit up with sparkling presents underneath. And then we would get our stockings down and dump them out and just eat candy. It was so quiet and it seemed so magical. Dawson wakes up usually around 5 ready to eat, and J.D. gets home around 5:30am... So we just turn on the lights and sit there. I love christmas!
