The tree is up

Aww, poor kitty. Held against his will.

Sydney decided to hang this old tree skirt from the knob of the door. It's for Santa, he'll think it's beautiful.

I think this is one of the pics we'll be using for our cards this year.

Putting up the tree was exhausting for Cori.

All finished!

We put the tree up in the basement this year, since the upstairs is a war zone of missing flooring and possible painting. Sydney hung pretty much every ornament this year and did a pretty good job. She really got into helping me.
