Christmas is almost here!!

With the state of the economy I have a very good idea that Christmas is going to be very slim this year. For the White family, we're all just pulling names from a hat for the gift exchange. Well Heather is pulling the names from a hat and telling us who is assigned to who. Thank you Heather for that lack of responsability for us! It's nice! It's going to be pretty fun because this is Weston and mines first Christmas together. We have 2 different ornaments that say 'Our First Christmas-2008'. I really like having that.
We started getting the Christmas decorations up in the apartment. We spent all of Sunday trying to get the tree working. We got one of those pre lit trees that are supposed to be 'easy' to use, helpful because we don't have to do much with it but set it up. Here's the thing though, they never work the way you want them too. We got it all set up and everything plugged in and over half the lights don't work. I just kind of stared at the tree like I was going to kill it! Weston then proceeded to take every light off of every branch so that we can put up new lights that actually work. What a novel idea, lights that work!
Oh well, tis the season not the kill you tree or hit the Santa outside of Walmart! :)
