Oh Christmas Tree! Yep, A Real One.

After the last couple years putting up an artificial tree, the kids asked for a real tree this year. 
Last year, Chompers Cat, DESTROYED our tree. We were a little nervous about getting a real one this year but in normal Babbitt form, we went ahead and did it anyway. 
I really missed the smell and texture of a real tree and I have to say it is nice to have one, despite the mess. 
The kids loved watching the tree be put on top of the car and they watched out the windows on the way home to make sure it didn't fall off on corners. :) 

 Looks like lil' helper is back on the scene. I think he is holding a play wrench but not sure. 
 I may try to make a swag out of the leftovers. 
 As for Chompers Cat, he is behaving himself so far. Only sleeping under the tree and pulling on a few lights. The ornaments aren't on yet, so that's the real test.
