today we continued with Christmas traditions and we watched some cheesy Christmas movies and put up the Christmas tree. We have only done the indoor one so far but soon we will get front porch tree up as well. Last year I picked up a set of 600 LED lights. I had bought some white lights last year and they were just too bright and white. So, I ordered a string of other lights that can be changed to so many different colors. The nice thing about these lights is that it can do soft yellow light. The bad thing is that when you blink you see red and green from the lights. But, it does tend to grown on you the more you look at it.
Tonight we watched the movie Family Switch and both kids seemed to really enjoy the movie. The movie we watched as we put lights on the tree was called Best Christmas Ever which gave Eva plenty of time to make all sorts of snarky comments through the movie. She’s quite funny when she wants to be.
One of our other traditions is to get the Hallmark photo ornament each year. I printed out this year’s photo and then put the ornament on the tree. As luck would have it the ornament was placed near one that was from 10 years before. We should now have one for every year as a family.
