I pulled out the tree and a pile of ornaments and the kids had a blast decorating Saturday evening. You can see the musical holidays *decorations*. The
Grinch, grandma who got ran over by a reindeer, the singing snowman and the musical bears... None had even been
batteried up yet. I put them ALL away yesterday. I have no idea how many times I had to tell the kids
to put the
ornaments BACK on the tree, stop swinging the
Grinch by his hat, Stop hitting each other with the snowman pillow. All chose to ignore me( Ben was home with bi-lateral ear infections) so when I saw that someone ripped the tasseling off the decorative pillow I grabbed an empty tote and piled it all back
in and put it away. I
threatened them with removing the entire tree. I *think* they believe me or at least fear I might follow through with this one... So for now.. things are a little more peaceful.
