Getting all bundled up to go get Maryn's FIRST Christmas tree!!!!!!

Papa and Maryn found the PERFECT tree!!!!!

Maryn and Sandy checking out the tree the next morning after Mama and Papa put it up and decorated it!

She LOVED the tree!!!!!!!

And the ornaments.............

Mama, Papa and Maryn had a blast picking out our tree together and watching Maryn explore the tree was so much fun!!! Believe it or not....she doesn't really mess with it. She likes to look at the lights, but luckily doesn't "get into it." :) Love you baby girl!
