It mostly went off without a hitch. There was the requisite arguing over ornaments. Ellery wanting “the one with the button!” Then when I finally con Neko into giving it to her, she threw herself to the floor wailing because it wasn’t a real button.
And why, oh, why can’t we ever find all three of the ornaments that are personalized?
But other than the few hiccups, it really felt very Christmas-y.
