The Dawsons put up our Christmas tree this evening which can mean only a handful of things...
1) I've already dropped and/or broken at least one ornament
2) My sister and I have fought over hanging an ornament on the same tree branch simultaneously
3) The cats have started batting the "soft" ornaments at the bottom of the tree
4) The dog is sleeping underneath the tree while we try to work around him
5) We've had a hearty laugh at my sister's famous nude ornament
6) We're all wondering where the disco spider ornament came from
The best dialogue of the night has been awarded to Maddie for this gem:
Maddie: *Setting up the nativity scene* "WHERE'S BABY JESUS??"
Mom: "What do you mean, 'where's baby Jesus?'???"
Maddie: " There's a manger, but no baby!"
Mom: "Jesus is in the manger, idiot."
Maddie: "Oh...I was looking at it upside down." *turns manger toward us so we can see* "DOES THAT NOT LOOK LIKE A BABY HOLE TO YOU????"
............
Mom: "Who's baby hole have you been looking at??"
Couldn't have written that better if I had tried.
Happy holidays, everyone!
