There is something about cool, fall weather and the cold that signifies the coming of Thanksgiving and Christmas. We skipped out on those triggers so it felt very odd to be setting up our tree. But we did our best to make it feel like Christmas. When we moved here, we had to reduce our household to 6,000lbs to ship across the Pacific, but the Christmas tree was a necessity. If it isn't going to feel like Christmas-it needs to LOOK like Christmas. At least inside.
The first picture Mike took, I was still in my jammies. But I insisted that he take another after I ran and changed. I can't let everyone think I never get dressed!
I love Christmas books and we have a growing collection of them. we set up the tree the day after Thanksgiving and ended the day reading The Polar Express in front of the tree.
