Last year, amist all the lavish gifts and crumpled wrapping paper, I declared this year to be a Little House Christmas. I told them that they would only receive what would fit into their stockings--just like Mary and Laura.
This year they reminded me of what I said, except they wanted a tree just like the Ingalls may have had.
So we picked a tree from the woods (okay, really it come from Lowes, but that's near the woods of our house...) and strung some popcorn
with cranberries (that could have come from our backyard, if we had any).
I think I'd behave too if Santa was coming next week. :)

I love it!!!! Please tell your girls that the Little House books were my favorites growing up. Your girls were precious in the Christmas Pageant! I know that it was a lot of work for your family, but I heard so many wonderful things! Merry Christmas!

Its nice to go back to the old way of doing things sometimes although I wouldnt want to live a little house day every day. I did that as a kid and Im tired of it. LOL
Your tree looks totally like an old fashioned tree. Good job.
