~First Fir~

This has been a fun week in the Neal household. Alexander has been able to experience his first start to the Christmas season. We went last Thursday to Pike Nurseries to pick out Alexander's first fir! He was a lot of help in selecting the perfect tree to display this Christmas. {Actually he was rather useless and was just trying to adjust to the cold temps..the first of his short life!} But I know that this is the start to a great tradition in our household and we look forward to the coming years when he will be the one to deem the tree perfect for our living room. He also hung out while Justin and I hustled and bustled around the house putting up our various decorations. It was definitely fun to include our little man in these experiences this year. Here are some pictures from our decorating bonanza!
