Putting up the Christmas Tree
Today was the first day of Advent, so we put up the Christmas tree, lit our candles, and wrangled all the accouterments out of the attic. The girls munched on JoJo cookies, spilled their hot cocoa, and broke one glass ornament (each!) during the process. The cats were torn between playing with the paper and Styrofoam scrunchies, or snoozing by the fireplace.
It's been raining for 3 days, and that seems to have caused problems with our exterior lights timer, so those have stopped working, with rather poor timing. I've been preparing for months for an exam (taken yesterday) so today was the first family quality time in a while.
I took a few pictures with the Canon, and if you click on the picture above you can see them.
