Our Pathetic Christmas Tree

So, as I said in last week's post I love how all of our decorations look in our home with the exception of our tree. It's pretty pathetic this year.

In these pictures, there is about a foot and a half of tree (starting from the bottom) that have no decorations on them because Ninja got the impression that this tree was put up for his amusement, and he views every ornament as a challenge that he must take down!


Then, the stinker figured out that swatting the ornaments from the outside of the tree isn't nearly as fun as climbing up the tree from the inside of it, and seeing how many ornaments he could take down.


Sadly, I think our tree looks even worse now because he plays with it so often that the branches aren't fluffy anymore, we're putting ornaments up higher and higher, and I've just dealt with it. When he's a little older and not so playful we can have a beautiful tree. Besides, I'm sure he's really just helping me prepare for what it will be like when we have little ones running around the house!

These pictures were taken a couple of weeks ago, and I took a picture of all the ornaments that had lost their hooks because of a certain little cat.


Notice that this one has a piece of it bitten off?? Hmmm.....who would have done that? :)


One of Michel's ornaments that he's had since he was a child (luckily it didn't have special sentimental value) was taken off the tree and turned into a new favorite cat toy. The ornament is a little cat, and in Ninja's defense, it really does look like a good cat toy. Ninja entertained himself with the Christmas ornament for at least half an hour earlier this morning...it was pretty hysterical to watch :)
