Decorating The Tree My Christmas Tree On my Christmas tree I have a ball that has my name on it. We have a new tree decoration. We have a snowman that sings Christmas carols. On the top of the tree there is an angel. It has lights and it can move its arms and wings. The lights are little lights of all colors. It was fun putting it up.

They flew in to the air. Santa went to everybody's everybody's house. Kyle Graham Gr.2 My Christmas It was Christmas. I went to bed, then I woke up. I went to see if Santa was there. He was not. I see two pieces of paper, no cookies, some milk. Then I woke up Jakob. We got a lot of presents. Then we woke up mom and dad. I got baby tumbles tumbles and Jakob got Cool Tools.
