Merry Christmas Season! This is Spaulding and Teddy's kids – Ding, Dee, Tine, and Tee – reporting for our family's blog. We've watched our parents and grandparents decorate for Christmas all our lives, so we askeded if we could do it this year. They said, "Sure!" Weren't we surprised?!

Of course, our daddies are strong, so they broughted the tree to us.

Dee and Tine straighteneded out all the branches and tried to get all the lights to spread out properly.

Tee and Ding splitteded up. Tee stood across the room to see the tree from a distance. Then he'd tell Ding which branch neededed to be moveded, and which lights were still buncheded together. Then they both admired it close up.

While we were working on the tree, our daddies broughted out the tree decorations.

Dee and Tine putteded up all of our Christmas Tree Stuffies. We miss them through the rest of the year, so enjoy spending Christmas with them! Even Star Bear was happy to be with his family again. (We did place him on the tree, so he could still hannnnggg around with Grandpa Axlerod and Pez, since he spenteded the year with them.)

We workeded together to putteded on the garland and beads, and then Tee and Ding putteded on the rest of the decorations. Grandpa Ax, the oldest one in our Stuffy family, putteded the angel on top. (Our tradition is that the oldest always gets that honor.) Ta da! Isn't it perfect?

After finishing the tree, we put up the nativity scene where the TV used to go. (We all got a huge Christmas present early, thanks to the old TV dying, the push for only digital TVs by February, and Great Grandpa sending his Christmas present early. You can try to guess what this present is, but we're not telling until Christmas. HoHoHo!) Grandma madeded this nativity set (except for the angel in the upper right corner) from staineded glass, right before we were born. (Grandma note: …and back when I was healthy, and could lean over to make the pieces fit well.)

We still have more decorating to do, but these two tasks were the mostest important, so we wanteded to show how pretty they are.
