Tom got it while Neko was in school and I was at the orthodontist. His mom sat in the car with the kids while he selected it and strapped it to the car.
Okay, not exactly the picturesque outing I had imagined, but we did it.
The decorating, however, was really wonderful. Neko really got into hanging the ornaments, and did a great job of spacing them out and finding good spots. Although Shep did enjoy banging the balls together, he wasn’t lobbing them across the room, which is a huge improvement over last year. Ellery thought all the ornaments were delicious.

Congrats! See? Perseverance is almost always rewarded! Plus it’s a nice size tree… not too big, but bushy and festive. Plus it’s not going to look sad and dead before New Year’s Day.
