Christmas is a big event in the Kelly household which we very much look forward to every year. Our main tree in the family room was a behemoth and needed to be delivered considering it stands over 9 feet tall and pretty much 9 feet wide!
We tried something new this year and the kids picked out their very own tree for the basement. This is not a staged photo... Whitney helped carry the tree over 3 blocks, while Max helped out with Anders!
On a mission to have a festive day/evening, we set out to visit Santa and see some of Michigan Avenue's finest Christmas trees. Here the kids are eagerly waiting in line to meet the Big Man himself.

This day was such fun we decided to make it an annual tradition.
On a different day, in a different state, we checked out the Wisconsin state capital tree with Nana. We were on our way to see Cousin Bridget dance in the Nutcracker but unfortunately don't have any pictures of her impressive performance.
I love the picture of them bringing home their tree. So precious! And yes, I am catching up on the Kelly clan. I miss you all!
