So this is Christmas....


Every year after Thanksgiving, we get down all the Christmas stuff from the attic and start to decorate. The contents of the storage buckets end up all over and it often looks like Christmas has thrown up. Keith and the kids try to get all the lights on the tree to work while I get the rest of the house set up. This year, our tree would not cooperate. After 3 days of working on lights and a mess all over the living room and kitchen, we gave up.
But the tree still looked fantastic in the end and now my mess is all cleaned up. We can officially enjoy the holiday season!

Your tree looks like it came out of a magazine!! Oh, and Zack's hair is looking all scraggly (just like sooo many girls like these days--is that why he's doing it?)

I have no comment about Zack, except that I am there with you. Our trees are up and decorated, but the Christmas throw up/mess is still out. Now it is my turn to decorate the house. That might get done before Christmas.
