Look, our tree is up and it’s only December 8th! No ornaments just yet, but soon. We had to rearrange the living room furniture to fit it. Things are a little crowded, but I like it better than cramming it into the dining room like we’ve done in previous years.

Joe’s ex’s family threw a little wrench into our plans this week by informing us they decided against getting the Nintendo DS for each of the kids.
