Getting Ready for Christmas

Friday, November 26

Mara helped me get the tree up today, but we had some issues with the garland since Doxy tried to claim it as soon as it came out of the box.

We finished decorating the tree tonight while watching Bedlam. Sadly, the Cowboys lost, but at least our tree looks good. It might be a little heavy with ornament on the bottom, though, since Mara insisted on putting up most of the ornaments and grouping them how she saw fit.

John had to work today, so Diane and I took Lori, Mikey, Lani, Mara, and even Jack to see Tangled at the movie theater. It was a really cute movie, and Jack was enthralled with the huge screen. He made a little bit of noise blowing raspberries at one point, but then gave up and fell asleep. He was much less distracting than the girls who sat in the row behind us.
