Oh Christmas Tree

No, we didn't cancel Christmas but there was a pretty high probability of it for a couple of days. It must have just been the kids trying to adjust back to being home and the time change. Matt picked up a tree on Monday during a brief respite from the pouring rain. The kids and I decorated it on Tuesday and it looks lovely -- except for the LED lights which seemed like a good idea (cooler, energy saving) but don't twinkle or illuminate at all. Oh well.

Fortunately, this part of the State only got downpours of rain without the torrential winds along with it. We didn't have a lot of wind or damage in this area but other parts of the State were really devastated.
