O Christmas Tree(s)!

   I started putting up our trees an entire week before Thanksgiving. That has got to be a record for me. Often times I'll procrastinate but this year I really got into the spirit early. As my mom put it "the elf bit me" I know the main reason for my eagerness to get the season started is because Kal-el will be able to enjoy it more than ever this year. He's at such a fun age right now. I also got really excited about he and Logan getting their own Superhero tree. Wolverine and Superman only of course :) Maybe in a couple years we can add a Rogue or Harley Quinn ornament. I was super pleased with how their little tree turned out. I think I ordered all the Superman/Wolverine ornaments that Hallmark makes with the exception of two ornaments which can be a little hard to find!
 There's still a good bit more that I want to do with our big family tree in the living room. Mom actually gave me the tree I grew up with which is a beautiful 7.5 ft tall tree. I realized pretty quickly that I needed more ornaments and embellishments because it also happens to be pretty wide but I plan to add a lot more to it next year :) Chris will want to strangle me upon reading this but I'd really like a tree in every room!  Ok maybe not the bathroom but for sure our bedroom and possibly the kitchen!I love this time of year.  It's so nice in the evenings when the sun goes down and there are warm sparkly lights and glitter everywhere. Ok ok I'll stop. Here are this years trees :)

And last but not least the tree skirt surrounded by comics, I can only hope my children enjoy being geeks half as much as me and their father do! Happy tree decorating!
