Oh Christmas tree Oh Christmas tree

Too bad I can't really finish the words to that song. Sometime a few weeks ago we decorated our tree. It was a fun night and what in the past felt like a huge task went so fast that all I could do was stand back and shake my head. My kids are getting entirely to big! When Roscoe and I were first married we had to buy a ton of xmas balls just to cover our tree, now I am left wondering how our future trees are going to even hold all our ornaments. Each yr everyone gets a new ornament in their stockings. I have started marking the bottoms so when the kids get married and start their own families they can take them with them to start off their trees. Hopefully my future daughter in laws will be ok with this idea. We had a good time decorating and only a few arguments broke out. Oscar. Please disreguard his filthy shirt.

Our Family 2010
Afterwards we all sat around the fire and read Christmas stories. It was my favorite!
Our star dies last year and staying in my true form I forgot to even think about needing a star. So Cyndell made us one. Jager put it on for us just before we all went to the place in the world. BED!
