Decorating the Christmas Tree

Scott and Haley went out Tuesday morning and got us a tree while Owen and I went to playgroup. We put the lights on that afternoon and last night we got the decorations on it. Ashlyn and Haley did fine, but Owen would just lay his ornaments on the branches so they had to be fixed. Also, we had some of those colored balls that the girls wanted to use and Owen would walk up to them and point and scream "BALL!". The night ended with Owen picking two of them off the tree and beating them together so they could just crumble in his hands. He didn't get cut, but if he had it would match his fat lip he got from falling off Haley's bike yesterday right onto his face.




















I don't know if you can see it well or not but Owen has one of those plastic candles you sit in the windowsill in his hand. You twist the bulb and they light up using batteries instead of cords. The kids have found that while candles in the windows are a good idea, these work better as a light saber or a pretend microphone and are also fun to put in your mouth and shine through your cheek.
