Trim up the Tree

Every December 1st we put up our beautiful Christmas tree.  It is a fake since I am terribly allergic to the real thing.  But still, there is something so wonderful about twinkley lights and the excitement of hanging each ornament that has been saved from year to year.  My children get so excited to search through the little boxes and find the ornaments that were bought especially for them.  It is a magical beginning to the Christmas season.
