Christmas Tree!

Last year we found a splendid little tree lot on Howard, tucked away by the Fish Keg.  We got a great price last year, and thought we'd try again this year.  We ended up paying a bit more than we wanted and more than last year, but to be fair, our tree this year is much bigger than last year's.  Much bigger than any tree we've ever had.  It's still small, but a bit taller.  And fat.  We got a fat tree.  The boys had a blast playing hide-and-seek in the trees and generally running around like crazy.

We did not have the opportunity to put the tree up tonight. By the time we got home, Yannick was LOSING it big time, so I put him to bed, then put the big boys in bed.  We brought the tree in to put it up, but it was having "issues" with our cheap tree stand.  Art got fed up, and took the tree out to the garage, for us to tackle tomorrow...possibly with the purchase of a good tree stand.  Baby steps.
