Fa-La-La-La-La!

We decked the halls at our traditional trim the tree party. The boys couldn't concentrate on decorating with "fancy" cookies and hot cocoa sitting out, so we snacked first. No one really likes hot cocoa. It's more of a vehicle for the marshmallows. All three boys devoured the cookies. Then it was time to get to business. Henry and John remembered the drill. Peter caught on quickly, but rather than hanging the ornaments on the tree, he just kinda threw them in there. This was the first year the boys enjoyed hearing the stories that went along with our special ornaments. This was not the first year that they fought over the puppet Santa ornament. Frances woke up from a nap in time for some decorating too. Except we decorated her instead. She did not appreciate the Santa hat.
