we got a lot of christmas decorations from andrew, left over from his party. reindeers and santas and elves that we put up all over the walls. also some christmas candles and a big red garland over the windows. then we got new strings of lights for the kitchen since the old ones were burning out. it looks like some kind of surreal funhouse in there now. i put one of the reindeer on the world map, it's flying to australia. i wanted to get a christmas tree since my parents are coming but i don't think i have time. we're going to go to the nutcracker with them..
