The Butterfly Tree

One of the best traditions that we started in our family when we first moved into this house was for the girls to have their very own Christmas tree in their room. We choose a theme each year (check past years' themes by looking in the blog archives) and work on it together. This year's winning theme was "The Butterfly Tree" chosen by our own little Buggy, Charlie!

And little helper Charlie


And Mommy too!


So proud of their work!

Our finished tree (minus the skirt)!
The girls love to have it lit every night as they fall asleep.
It's the fanciest night light you ever did see, that's for sure!
