Decorating for Christmas Part II

We wrapped up decorating with putting up our tree and getting it decorated. We purchased this fake tree last year and got it for 80% off, along with all the tree trimmings. Being my frugal self, this makes me very happy. I was more excited to get the receipt out and see how much I saved than I was to actually get the decorations up. Sick, I know. As part of the decorating, I pulled out a toy train set my sister gave to me about 9 years ago. Unfortunately, it doesn't run around the track anymore but it still plays music and Jackson didn't much mind. In conjunction with getting the house ready for Christmas, a friend of mine and her children, along with my Dad and I, went to the Green Bay Holiday Parade on Saturday. I've decided you can't go wrong children and parades; they love them. We had a nice time and the weather couldn't have been better!
