Christmas tree, Schmitzmas Tree: Gaston couldn't be stirred...

Dateline Normandy -- The Christmas spirit has seeped down the drafty chimneys of Chateau Blanc and P is getting excited for a possible visit of Pere Noel, as Santa is known here, for the first time. The T's installed probably the biggest tree in France and had a merry time decorating with the little one before realizing that their old garland barely made one loop around the Sapin de Noel behemoth. Le petit is enjoying singing "Jingle Bells," or a fairly close resemblance to it, and is mesmerized by the tree lights even after taking a bite out of one of the bulbs to see if it was candy -- giving pere and mere another cardiac moment. Luckily P came through scolded but unscathed. Here's to hoping for a white, not wet, Normandy Christmas. ~30~
