Oh Christmas Tree...

So, this weekend we finally decorated for Christmas. After moving, unpacking boxes and all sorts of stuff unfamiliar I really wanted to decorate the house for Christmas. Plus it's really hard to be in the spirit of the holidays when it's sunny and nice outside (it just feels slightly not right). I had to do some major arm twisting with a ridiculous amount of begging, because Ben didn't want to have anything to do with it. His weekends are apparently "sacred" now and the last thing he wanted to do was unpack some more boxes and set up a tree just to repack in a bunch of boxes in a couple of weeks. If it was just the two of us I don't think he would have agreed, but because of the baby (yea, Lizzie) I finally convinced Ben that it would be fun and she'd get a kick out of it. He agreed under one condition, that no Christmas music would be played...ever. So, we set up our glorious fake tree, to the sounds of Delirious?, put lights in the window by the kitchen table and set up our Playmobil nativity set. As you can see in the pictures below Lizzie had a great time and so did we.
