It's officially the Christmas season! I'm up to my eyeballs, literally, in Christmas tubs and boxes and there is still much more in the shed to be brought in! It seems like just yesterday that we packed all this Christmas stuff up... but it was actually August. Yes - August... easily the LONGEST I've ever had Christmas decorations out. They weren't still up - just out needing to be packed.
So far we have one tree officially "done" and 5 more waiting to be completed. We went with a live tree (really dying... as soon as you cut it, it starts to die...) again. This will be the 3rd year in a row and the 4th year ever that we've had a live tree. We never had them when I was a child. I do like the live trees. I was finding that after 13 years of Christmas photos in front of the tree they were all starting to look the same. I was even hanging the ornaments in the same spots! That's pretty pathetic, no? So this year our tree isn't quite as tall and it's much stouter than the past trees and yes, it probalby has way too many lights - but we could use another lamp in the living room anyway...
