We're one of those strange families who waits until after Thanksgiving to put up our Christmas decorations. Not long after Thanksgiving, but after none the less. This year, we were trying to decide how much of the decorations to put up and risk their destruction by Hurricane Hudson. We decided to put up the outside decorations and the tree, and the other inside decorations that are up out of his reach. We figured he'd like the lights, but we'd have a hard time keeping his little hands off of the decorations. We were right! So far, he's already ripped the nose off of a snowman that I have inside, and torn both of the eyes off of the light up Rudolph that we have outisde. But it is funny to watch him get excited when we plug in the lights on the tree, and he'll run to our front window and point and jump up and down when the outside decorations come on. Sad to say, though, our nativity scene is one thing we decided not to mess with this year. It probably won't see the light of day for a few years now!
