Mistletoe: CHECK!

Christmas: Day 14
Years ago, as a joke, I hung some mistletoe over our bed. My teenage kids were totally grossed out! A few days later, I discovered that they had replaced the mistletoe with broccoli! It was hilarious! Every year since, I make sure and hang mistletoe over the bed and it brings back such a funny memory. They all stay the night on Christmas Eve and so as each one was married, I made sure that there was a sprig of mistletoe over each of the beds...somehow, they were no longer grossed out.
