Yesterday my cousin Chrissy dropped in, her kids Amanda and Heather in tow. She stopped in to invite me to her place for Christmas dinner, and noticed that the tree was still sitting there, naked as a jay bird. So she and her kids took off their coats, placed a request for some hot chocolate and Christmas music, and we rolled up our sleeves and decorated the tree together. That was really nice of them to do that with me. I had a good time; it was good to have some family time putting up the tree. Thanks Chrissy, Amanda and Heather! You did a great job!
