Christmas

I love Christmas! I haven't always loved Christmas. There was a lot of hurt and disappointment in it growing up. But now that I can control the focus of it, I love it. We still do gifts and meals and decorations, but I so enjoy the time spent with those we love. I do love the decorating part, and go big with that, but I start early so it's worth it. We already have a tree up downstairs for the kids, and lots of decorations too. This weekend we will be choosing our 10 foot tree for the living room, and picking it up next weekend. I am so excited. My in-laws and my dad will be with us for the meal on Christmas Day, and who knows what going's-on will occur between now and then, and afterwards up to New Year's. I'm looking forward to it.
