Three French hens, two turtledoves, and a bunch of *%$@ in our Christmas tree
At first glance, this looks like a typical, dead-because-no-one-has-watered-it-since-Christmas-day, mid-January Christmas tree. But the youngest has been singing, “Decorating the tree, decorating the tree, Addison is the greatest at decorating the tree!” and prancing about with strange objects, so let us take a closer look.
In other Christmas decoration news, as those of you who have been following the situation on Twitter know, my idiot idea of batting the outdoor Christmas lights down with a large stick instead of getting out the ladder actually worked. My success was a little bittersweet, though, because I had expected to get a story out of this jackassery. Or at least an eye patch.
And as yet another holiday season wraps up, our Christmas stockings are going to be packed away still looking like this. Because I’m an awesome mom.

I especially love the floss on the tree! Addison can decorate my tree anytime!
It is the randomness of the thought process that I love about kids. They can take absolutely any household item and turn it into bling, or at the least a toy. It can me a necktie, shoelace, food… a dead animal… anything. Not always fun to clean up, but most of the time quite interesting.
