So let's talk about all the things I did leading up to Christmas :)  On the very first day of December my family brought in our tree that we had gotten the day before! We brought it in all tied up, and if you have ever seen Christmas Vacation you can really appreciate this ;) This was also my dad showing off his extremely sharp knife, which he proceeded to gash open his finger with!  Boys...
