On Friday Jake and Carolyn came over again so Jake could help me put up my Christmas lights. Then we went to the movies to see Planet 51. The kids really seemed to enjoy it. I thought it was pretty good. It wasn’t Pixar but it was watchable.
On Saturday we decided it was time to get our Christmas trees. Jake and Carolyn came over once again as is the tradition for our tree cutting. Alex and Melodie also joined us. We drove to Moscow and got our permits ($5). Then we drove out in to the Idaho forest and wandered around until we found trees that would fit and looked good. We came home and played some Super Mario Wii. Once everyone was back at their own places we hauled all the Christmas decorations up from the basement and started setting up. Its a very nice tree. I love Christmas.
