We had just finished with our massive clean-a-thon, we were putting everything back in it's place. Jude and Alice were still doing their very best to be helpful and contribute. Well unfortunately while Jude was putting some blankets away he caught the blanket on our Christmas tree. He just kept pulling and pulling trying to get the tree to let go of his blanket and.....SNAP! He broke our Christmas tree. He snapped it right off the base. To be fair it was an old Christmas tree, so it probably already had one foot in the ground. And my mom is getting rid of her tree so this ws a good a time as any to get rid of this one. All the same I think I want to make this my family Christmas card with the title "MERRY CHRISTMAS, from families with small children everywhere!"
