O Christmas Tree

So this morning I am up in the bathroom getting ready for the day. My kids are downstairs watching cartoons (yes I do let the TV babysit my children on occasion). All of a sudden I hear a crash and a scream. Don't you love those noise together. I knew exactly what it was. Addison loves to sneak behind the Christmas tree to try and hide. Well she has apparently done it one to many times because I run down the stairs to see Addie standing there, water all over as I had just filled the tree stand, and my tree and ornaments all over the floor. What a great way to start the day! Gotta love your 2 year olds some days.:) The look on her face was quite priceless if I had only thought to grab the camera. i hope everyone is having a great day.

Oh Wendy.....this is when we are grateful for the little extra sleep. ;) Hang in there, it will be funny someday.
Love ya

Yes it is sad that the tv can be one of the best babysitters around. Try a bit of wire hidden at the back of the tree and attached to the wall. Perfect for added support and to get the perfect upright position. Is Ben not handy?

We have had this happen to us...we wised up and now every year we attach strong clear fishing line to the tree and then to the wall. Works like a charm!!
