We finally finished our last bit of Christmas un-decorating today. The lights came down from gutters and the Christmas tree got some Sawz-all attention.

Afterward, instead of destroying trees, the Boy decided he wanted to try climbing one — a magnolia in the backyard that was just a little sapling when we bought the house.






And what better way to end this day off of school than with a little bonfire, burning the tree that was just in our living room.
