Christmas Tree Trickery

On Monday night we pulled out the Christmas decorations. Our Christmas tree has a remote control that turns the lights on and off, with the option for colored or white lights. Never one to pass up the chance to play a trick on someone, Bill told the kids that they could turn the lights on and off by magic. They would wave their arms and shout, "White lights on!" and Bill would secretly press the remote. I wish I'd gotten a picture of their faces the first time they did it ... it was absolutely priceless. I did get some video of their "magic" and Bill's confession of the truth though.

And here's a picture of the tree once we stopped messing around and finished decorating.

Let the Christmas season officially begin!
