Putting up the Tree

We put up our tree the morning after Thanksgiving, as is the tradition every year. But amidst the tree trimming, holiday music blaring, bed head and pajama donned dancing, there was Santa (aka Harrison) sitting atop his throne of Coke and Pepsi products. All were invited to sit upon Santa's lap, describing what was desired most for Christmas. Why, you may be asking, do we have a throne of Coke and Pepsi products?

"Food Storage," Craig would reply.

So if there is a major disaster you know where to come. Because we all know the one thing you will want most during a disaster is a nice caffeinated beverage (or one without caffeine...we do buy some without caffeine).

Check out Harrison's face! I absolutely love how he is looking at Craig!

And finally...the tree...what this post was supposed to be about.

And yes there are no ornaments on the bottom two feet. Chalk it up to "The Master of Destruction" (aka Addilyn). She already pulled off one glass ornament (supposedly out of reach) and proceeded to smash it into tiny little shards of glass with her bare little hands (thankfully there were no cuts, bleeding or crying...well Harrison started crying, on behalf of the broken ornament).

To which I say, I love Christmas!
