Thanksgiving pics/ the tree goes up

We celebrated Thanksgiving at home this year. We had a funeral and Funeral dinner the next day so we stuck around here for this year. We also put our tree up that evening as well. Jaren has been wanting to put it up for months!! He was very excited this year to "help". The nativity is the one we got in the Dominican Republic a few years ago.
