I rearranged the living room a smidge so we could put the tree up this evening. I do love going through the ornaments we’ve collected throughout the years, and Carrie loves to hang things on the highest branches she can reach while Daddy holds her up.
I remember our first tree – senior year of college, we rented half a duplex with another friend, and we put up a tree even though we’d be away over Christmas. We really had no ornaments to speak of, so I bought all red and gold ornaments and tried to do one of those decorator-type trees. It came out…well, honestly, pretty ugly.
I like this tree, in all of it’s homemade, mismatched, colorful, paper-towel-angel-on-the-top glory much better!
