Oooh, Aidan *needs* one of these:

Aidan refers to the cat tree as the playground. He is always climbing on it and playing with the balls. Today I noticed that one of the limbs looked a little odd. I will let the picture tell the rest of the story, except to say I think Aidan may now be too big for the cat tree.

After a full day’s worth of geocaching, we returned home with an extra string of 50 mini-lights. Gwen strung them up, and then Gwen and Aidan decorated the tree. Well, part of the tree…

So, we decided to give our Charlie Brown fake tree another year (and try to pick up a replacement during the after-Christmas sales). Unfortunately, lighting the tree is only a one person job. Gwen did it last year (for some reason) and seemed gung-ho to do it again this year.

I supervised. And uttered such helpful things as “Oh … that’s not good” (when she reached the end of a branch with the end-to-end string).

At this moment it looks like we won’t need to go buy any more lights for the tree. This year. Update: Um, she ran out about a foot from the top. Now the question is: unstring and restring the lights, or buy another short string. It’s much too late tonight to be making that decision.

I’ll post an after picture after Gwen’s finished lighting it, and we put the decorations on it.
