Let's just say that in the past, I have not been really big on decorating for Christmas. Between Allen traveling, neither one of us taking vacation days around the holidays, and never hosting any of the family get-togethers, for the past several years I was only motivated enough to hang a wreath on the front door and call it a day. And that was just to avoid having people think that we were a couple of Scrooges. This year, however, we'll be spending a lot more time at home and we have much more of a reason to celebrate! So, after years of putting it off, we finally got our first real Christmas tree! I think it looks beautiful and I love coming downstairs and catching a whiff of that Christmas smell. Most of all I think Allen and I are looking forward to setting it on fire after New Years :) Outside, of course!
