Up goes the Christmas tree

It only took the whole weekend to get our tree up! We bought it Friday night, searched for the lights and decorations Saturday and got it lit and decorated Sunday afternoon. The temps were in the 70's Friday and I don't care what anyone says, Christmas tree shopping in shorts and flip flops is mighty enjoyable to me.

In addition to the tree, we also busted out National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation for the first time this season. Just as funny the 87th time as the first :)

Other weekend activities included the Annual Mother/Daughter Christmas Brunch which was held at the Local Gastropub on the Square, Kennon's work Christmas party at Brooklyn Bridge, some baseball, some gym time, church and wondering why in the world our dogs beg so much.
