Chris and I had a snow day yesterday...yeah free day. A couple weeks ago we actually picked up 2 strings of lights which we hadn't even taken out of the bag...until yesterday. While we were out an about we picked up a little potted pine tree which we brought upstairs and trimmed (we couldn't do it downstairs as the boxers would eat it...and the presents). We only had 9 ornaments between us, but that was just the right amount for our little tree. I haven't been particularly excited about Christmas since...well, since my dad died. He loved Christmas; in particular he loved decorating for Christmas. Back in the day the ranch could be seen for miles as a result of the many, many colored bulbs lighting up crisp winter nights. It's been hard to get back into Christmas, but as I start my new life with my new family, I am ready to reclaim some old traditions, as well as creating new ones.
