Not in this house! Every year I have tried to have a beautifully decorated Christmas tree, but now with the boys ages 2 and 3. Being so interested in gravity, last year the tree was pushed over just about twice a day. Most of the ornaments were destroyed, every time the tree fell an angle lost it's wings and head. We got smart this year and put plastic ornaments up, but not too much later I've been finding the kids playing kick ball with them. Luck fully only one trip to the emergency room this Christmas, Baby ran into tree branch and pocked his eye. Today I really don't mind an ugly tree, I pick up the ornaments and just put them in the toy box. Still a star at the top and, hanging in the branches a bunch of wire hooks and knotted string.

I randomly came across your blog today. I love the graphics and the entries are really amusing as well. Great job!

I do not even put up a Christmas tree. Kids who have visited me suggested giving me the extra tree for their house.
My sister-in-law said every American home should have a tree.
I got by without one for several years.
I laughed again as I read this post. You are like Mom, why make stuff up when your life is already so fun. With two boys and an active girl life is certainly not boring!
