Christmas Palooza

Its that time of year again....
When the boxes come out of the attic and the house is transformed into a Christmas wonderland.

Momma elf was busy cleaning, prepping and preparing for the decorating of the TREES
and was so thankful when the Sparkle elves arrived home to complete the transformation.

First step after the trees are strategically placed is to top the big tree with the Angel.

 Its always a memorable experience with these 3 (usually its a one Sparkle + Daddy job but no one could remember who did it last year)

From there, its on to the select this years themes  (9 😳) and hanging the ornaments
