Ornament Placement Tips from the Cobb Kids

Here are a few tips for decorating your Christmas Tree compliments of Hannah, Sarah and Grace:

1. Be sure to select only the most colorful ornaments from the box (not the boring old silver balls Mom is so fond of.)
2. Ornament clustering is preferable (see photos below). Challenge your sisters to see how many balls they can fit on one branch at the bottom of the tree.
3. The old saying "less is more", does not apply here. More is definately more!
4. If you run out of room on the bottom branches, just start piling the ornaments around the base of the tree.
5. If necessary, remind Mom to relax. Her years of a perfectly balanced designer tree are over.
6. Make sure Dad sleeps through the entire process (see photos below).
7. Remove ornaments and relocate them several times a day.
8. Have fun with your family!!!

Our kids seem to use the same "everything on the same branch" method. BTW, I hope you don't mind, we have put a link to your blog on ours at whitten.homelinux.net/blog/

Not at all. It's a fun way to keep in touch and watch each other's families grow...looking forward to seeing and hearing more about the Whitten family on your blog.
