Christmas Back-log #2: Broken Christmas Tree

We got our Christmas decorations set up during the first week of December, but between rambunctious preschoolers and a two-year old who's phase is pushing, the tree didn't last very long. It was only up two days before it was broken beyond Mommy's ability to repair. So, it went to the garage to await the fate of Daddy. After a few weeks Daddy devised a tree stand that was preschooler proof and toddler proof. And the tree was back up for the last few days before we left on our vacation to visit family. (more on that to come.)
