We put up our Christmas tree this evening. It's a fake tree... I'm still not sure exactly how I feel about it... I got a good deal, but the smell of Christmas isn't in the house... Emma has had so many problems with her asthma this year that it just didn't seem to make sense to bring a pollen-laden allergen intentionally into the house. So we shall see how it goes. Once we got the lights and ornaments on, the tree was actually rather pretty. Somewhat more narrow than the ones we usually choose, but pretty none the less.
Emma was very into the tree this year for the 1st time. She actually had a bit of a meltdown when TJ came in the room and LOOKED at HER Christmas tree! We had to have a little discussion about how we were ALL going to enjoy the tree together. Tantrum was averted and she spent the rest of the night walking around telling people "That tree is for ebery-body." Decorating was lots of fun. Emma was very intent on hanging the ornaments and was so proud each time she got one on. After that, we lit candles and had some egg nog. This was Emma's 1st time trying eggnog and she really liked it. Then we snuggled in bed and watched "The Santa Claus 3." It was a good evening...
