Monday the boys were back to school, and James was still home on vacation. He suggested that we start cleaning out the scary closet, and decorate for Christmas. At first I didn’t feel like cleaning, but I was glad that we did. We cleaned out a lot of clutter, and we’ve got the house a little bit closer to being ready for Christmas.

The kitty wanted to help too. Every year he eats one of the wreaths, and takes out the Christmas tree. He is a bit of a stinker when it comes to decorating.

We moved the Christmas tree to a different spot in the foyer.

Agnes was happy to see the star up on the tree.

She likes the lights too.

She loves this little Santa. She carried it around all day.

We are off to a pretty good start so far.

I’m waiting for the weather to warm up just a bit, so I can decorate outdoors too.
