We finally got the house decorated for Christmas yesterday. Our aim had been to get everything up the weekend of December first, but with illness, that didn't happen.
So yesterday we pulled the tree out of storage and reassembled it, found all the bins of ornaments and lights, got the Christmas Village put together, hung the stockings fromt he chimney with care ... you get the idea.
The cats are in a full on state of wonder at what we've done for them. Logan has been trying to pull the stockings down, Keegan had discovered that if you hit the ornaments they move, and Tika has found the perfect sleeping place. The middle of Santa's village. It was like a scene out of an old Godzilla movie. Amazingly, she didn't break anything, or she hadn't as of this morning. Of course, it's only a matter of time before the boys see her and decide that she's found the best seat in the house.
I can't wait to see how they react to the presents once we get them out and wrapped. I love my kittens dearly, but they don't have very good memories. Every year it's like it's their first Christmas.

In fact, we think that Keegan (our middle child) thinks he's a dog. It helps that Huntly is a herder with a den mother personality. He seems to think that the cats are his flock or his puppies, we're not entirely sure :)
