Yesterday, we went to Mom and Dad's house to help them put up their Christmas tree. Mom fixed a huge lunch. We had brisket, hashbrown casserole, green beans, corn on the cob, and cheese dip and chips. Luke and little Robert put the Christmas tree up and we soon discovered not a lick of lights would light up! So, Asia and I went to Walmart to buy 900 lights for the tree. After it was lit, we went to town decorating it. I think the kids had it done in no time. Chris and Summer were there too. Chris has put on a few pounds that we like to tease him about. I have never seen my brother have a gut in 30 years. Luke was eating a cookie and I told him, "You'd better stop eating those or you'll look like him!" and pointed to Chris. Now, while it sounds mean, I meant no harm. We all laughed our heads off. Chris has teased me for years about my weight so I just had to say it.
Robert discovered a Captain Kirk ornament Mom and Dad have. He fell off his chair and once I pulled him from the box, Robert says, "Look Mom, this dude is doing wall squats." I busted out laughing. He then had to take a picture doing a squat with Captain Kirk.
I think the tree turned out great. The whole family had a blast doing it. It's been a while since everyone's gotten together to decorate the family tree.
