Today was the day after Thanksgiving. After nap time we went to buy our Christmas tree. Everyone got to pick out a new ornament for the year. Jackson chose a metal airplane and wanted Sam to chose a metal train. Sam chose a box of brightly colored glittery balls. Chloe chose a cluster of jingle bells, but My Little Pony ornaments were a close second for her. I chose the metal train (for Jackson) and Jeff chose a metal old fashioned car (to continue the theme). Chloe was too tired to help decorate. The boys were so excited to help- giddy with glee! They placed all their ornaments, clustered in the center of the tree. But when we were done, they decided they should move theirs around to empty spots. They kept saying, "This one's very special; I have to get the right spot." I told them that in the morning, when Chloe gets up, that she's going to take all the ornaments on the bottom of the tree and play with them or eat them, so then they moved again. After we finished the tree, Jackson decorated the rest of the house with the stockings and little table top decorations. He insisted that the "socks" (stocking) were to be hung on the tree. --Kari
