Before Chris left I was able to steal him away from his homework to go get our first family photo together and then a couple weeks after he left I was able to bring Paisley for her photos. They all turned out amazing.

We have been very blessed with Chris being gone we were on a waiting list for a free real christmas tree and while he was gone I got an email saying they had some left over first come first serve the next morning. So Paisley and I got there and got the most perfect christmas tree!

| Loving the feel of the new REAL Christmas tree. She was afraid of the fake one. |
So I was able to take our fake one back to Target. As soon as I got home and set up the christmas tree and took all the decorations of the fake one and put them on the new one I got a phone call saying we won 50 dollars towards the christmas tree farm. Since I was able to get a free tree from trees for troops I told them that they could give it to another family.

| THANK YOU! |
We also won a chance to go to an event at our housing office that we went to this morning. We received a 20 dollar gift card, a bag of canned goods and boxed goods, a picture with santa and a free toy for Paisley and some other cool stuff.

| Her first picture with Santa. Not so bad for being tired and hungry! |
 |
| Finally home from our fun day at the event with our free toy and goods! |

| Loving her new toy thanks to donations to Operation Homefront! |
Even though Chris has been gone and I've had a meltdown or two from missing it's been good. Paisley's keeping me on my toes and it seems as though she's finally getting back into her sleeping schedule.
Now all we need is Chris to be home and to see the real tree since I've kept him from him that we won and I returned the fake one. I know he'll be excited!
