Decorating the tree

So, last year on the day after Christmas, I ventured out and bought a fake Christmas Tree.  Actually, I bought 2.  I have been waiting and waiting for this Christmas so I could pull them out.  I was tired of having a real tree.  I didn’t want to wait for Eric to go and get it.  I didn’t want to feel bad that I had a tree on the curb that wasn’t going to be used again.    I usually try and wait for a while before I put the Christmas stuff up.  Not this year. 

The day after Thanksgiving, the Christmas stuff was going to be pulled out and put up.  I wanted to put my tree up.  I wanted to put the ornaments on it.  I wanted to hang the stockings.  I wanted to do all of this.  yeah to the fake tree for getting me in the Christmas spirit.  

It was a party.  I put my ornaments on the tree and it looked so cute.  then I felt bad, because Max said that his favorite part of decorating is getting out all of the “fun” ornaments.  Oops. 

Next year…  next year.. 

Actually, Alysa made a contract up that said..

“I, ______ agree to put up all of the kids ornaments next year”.    Ha ha
