Christmas Tree

As long as I can remember we have put our Christmas tree up the Sunday after Thanksgiving. Last week we were having a few behavior issues so we did not put the tree up. The girls have ask every day this week and Kevin even ask once if we were going to put a tree up this year. After the drama from last week with the girls and then the drama that we have had in years past with the lights, I really wasn't looking forward to doing it. Today I finally broke down and we put our tree up. We had such a lovely Sunday. I am so glad that we waited and did it when were all able to enjoy it. We came home from church and jumped right in. The dreaded task of making sure the lights worked was the first task. At first it looked like we were going to be out of luck but we all worked together and the lights are working. It was a pleasant task. We added the ornaments and then we had dinner before we headed off to church to listen to the First Presidencies Christmas Devotional. Today was a wonderful day.
