Alex has too much egg nog and misses his first tree decorating

Alex's first Christmas tree decorating event appears to have been an overpowering experience -- must have been Mommy's egg nog. As the second strand of lights went onto the tree, our little buddy went out like a light. This didn't slow Allison's progress. She had red balls on her fingers and found the perfect spot to put "the family" as she called them. As the clock ticked on, we ran out of time to finish the tree with all the trimmings.

Update: It's Sunday morning and Allison has asked me ten times, "Daddy, can I decorate the tree?" It's the Christmas equivalent of "Are we there yet?" Not yet, not yet...
