It was a day off for all of us. So we decided to put up the Christmas tree rather than over the weekend. To me, it was a little overdue as we usually set up the tree earlier than this. Anyway... Ko-ko helped daddy to carry the tree from downstairs.
After that, you both helped daddy put on the branches. Next was my job to put on the lights. This job took me longer than usual as I had to remove and replace two of the lights. They were a new set which we had bought last year. One was of a different color, while another could not connect to the lights at the top, so they could not be lighted. After a lot of sweat and confusion in trying to set up the lights, we were ready for the decoration.
This year, daddy and I got to sit back while the two of you picked the ornaments you wanted to put on the tree. As with previous years, Mei-mei loved to put the ornaments in a group. Daddy asked "Mei-mei.. why did you put them together like a family?" *grin*
The final touch was the angel which only daddy could reach. And he needed a chair to climb on also.
Ta-da.. our tree is up.
