During our six years of full timing, we never had a Christmas tree, even though we had the room for a tabletop tree.
So, this weekend we made a trip to target and purchased a little three foot tree. We found some inexpensive ornaments, tree skirt, and an angel for the top. What's very unusual for us is the fact that we put the tree up already. Definitely broke our 'wait until after Thanksgiving' rule, but that's okay. It is time to get in the holiday spirit.
Our daughter will be here right after Christmas to bring in the new year with us, so we will celebrate Christmas with her just as we did when the kids were growing up. Then on New Years Eve, we will be attending the Boston Bruins vs. Dallas Stars hockey game. Amanda is an avid Bruins fan and I know she'll be wearing the black and gold Bruins colors, so let's hope there are plenty of others cheering for Boston in Dallas.
