Decorated the Christmas Tree

Yesterday was a good day. I messed around online for a while then went to wake Victor up around 10, but he didn't actually get up till closer to 11. He made sausages and we ate while watching a tv show we've been watching lately called Witch, which is really, really good. We then played some games in the Game Room on the xbox. The Game Room has a bunch of old games on it, like Atari and Intellivision stuff. After that we played some of the Michael Jackson Experience game. Then we sat at our computers for a little bit before Victor made dinner, which was a sort-of spaghetti that had cheese melted into the sauce. (he says that's the only difference between spaghetti and the not-spaghetti that I don't remember the name of) We used Tvp Textured Vegetable Protein 10 oz Pkg instead of meat. Apparently we used to eat it when I was a kid, but I don't remember. I didn't even notice the difference. We're going to get the bigger pack of it, and it will be a lot cheaper than buying hamburger. At Wal-Mart it's about 2 dollars a pound, and at work it's about 4.50 for a pound and a half (because for some reason we don't sell it in one pound packages at work). A lot easier too, no grease to dispose of. If we change our minds on what to make for dinner I don't have to freeze it and then go through thawing it. Anyway, we watched another episode of Witch with dinner. After dinner Victor played Red Dead Redemption and I read Green Rider. I'm really enjoying the foreshadowing. Having read the third book and knowing what all happens in the third book makes it really interesting to re-read the first book. Like the dream she has at the Way Station about flying into the stars. I wonder if that was just something she decided to embellish on or if she had the whole thing planned out? Anyway, we also decorated the Christmas tree, finally:


 Here is our Christmas tree. I know there's not many ornaments towards the bottom, but Boney was extremely interested in the dangly toys we call ornaments. So I figured I'd put a few of the plastic, non-breakable, ones towards the bottom and the rest up top where he can't reach them.


An up-close of the angel on top because I think she's pretty.


 One of my favorite ornaments, isn't it so pretty?
