These past few years, we have take to putting up the Christmas tree the day after Thanksgiving. This year was no different, except for the bit where Ted and Grandpa Charles had to restring the lights because a good portion of them were out. Our Hero still loves to trim him a Christmas tree, Fans. Though he is learning at he heels of a master Christmas tree trimmer (also known as Grandma Connie), Our Hero's enthusiasm for the task still outstrips his abilities. That's why most of the ornament hanging occurs when Clara is napping or both bambini are being wooed with something they love more than tree trimming: swimming in a pool. Our strategy is to begin when the bambini are about, complete most of the decorating when they are not, and finish up when they are back about so they, too, can take it all in with contented sighs--or try to touch every single ornament they can reach.
